Disruptive Transformation and the Accountable Care Organization (ACO)
Although Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), have represented the fastest-growing seg-
ment of the health care industry over the last several years, home care, home health and hos-
pice executives report a general lack of familiarity and experience with ACOs. As a result, few
partnerships have been explored. In this session, we will discuss real-world examples of how
collaborating with an ACO can lead to better patient care—and to a better bottom line. We
will address the current state of accountable care, perspectives from ACO leadership, the
future of ACOs and home care, home health care and hospice. Attendees will leave with an
understanding of how to create a powerful value proposition that leads to enduring part-
nerships with ACOs.

your clients and staff and can give your company a marketing advantage. This presentation

JASON SVATEK
Senior Vice President, Pipeline Success Inc. & CareInHomes
Through The Eyes of The Careseeker
The first step a family takes into the spectrum of senior care and the decisions they must
make are unfamiliar. The job of the home care provider is to assist them in crafting a reliable,
cost-effective solution for in-home care. But where are the crucial decision makers coming
from, and what is their expectation? CareInHomes, the largest provider of digital inquiries
to aggregators, shares their profiling data on the consumer’s own assessment and suggests
how to adapt these insights for better care management and better customer relations.
