Vermont is a bit different…
Across the nation, ACO’s are typically business arrangements between groups of providers and one or more payers. Providers see ACO as a way to maybe make a little extra money.
In Vermont, ACOs are business arrangements between groups of providers and multiple payers. Providers see ACO as a way to maybe make a little extra money…
AND, the ACOs (particularly the OneCare ACO) are high profile leaders for statewide health care reform—private provider led efforts that complement the public sector led initiatives
FletcherAllen.org
26
ACOs as a “platform” for reform
ACOs as a “Health Care Reform Trifecta”
Structure a broad network of linked providersContract voluntarily to mutual performance agreementsCommit to better understand community status & needsCommit to test and add new ideas into daily practiceStrive to achieve slower cost growth
(While improving clinical quality and patient satisfaction)Collaborate with insurers (Medicare, Medicaid, Blue’s)Willing to be paid differentlyWilling to assume more financial risk

FletcherAllen.org
31
The Future of Vermont Reforms
Opportunities• Providers are engaged and collaborative
>Population-based approach is being widely embraced
• Broad physician alignment>65% of MDs work for hospitals or FQHCs>All hospitals and FQHCs are in multipayer ACOs
• Data infrastructure is approaching maturity>Statewide HIE>All-payer claims databases>Northern New England Accountable Care Collaborative
• OneCare provides statewide framework for real change
FletcherAllen.org
32
The Future of Vermont Reforms
Challenges• How do you improve on our high-performing system?• Ongoing tension about who should lead reform
>Best public-private balance?>Best locus for public leadership—political or policy centric>Best roles for providers / payers / ACOs / state agencies?
• Providers’ concerns about their future sustainability • Wariness about Vermont state intensions• Wariness about Dartmouth and UVM intensions• The heaviest lifting has yet to come

33
Some Key Unknowns
Will Vermont receive its required federal waivers?
Will the Vermont legislature approve public financing? “The largest tax increase in state history” “Substituting payroll taxes for private insurer premiums”
Where will “Single Payer” risk be held?
Will state or providers control key reform infrastructure?
What role will commercial payers continue to play?
Will ERISA plan employers successfully sue Vermont?
FletcherAllen.org
34
Some Key Unknowns
How will Vermont reforms impact out of state providers?
(Dartmouth Hitchcock, Boston Children’s…)
Will the reforms adversely impact the state economy?
Will Vermont’s high performing system be maintained?
What will the changes mean for Vermont providers?
Will changes result from the Nov 4 Vermont elections? Will changes result from the Nov 4 federal elections?

A Closing note—Then…and now!
Then: C. Rufus Rorem
visited us at Iowa and spoke
about his work on the CCMC
1969 -1925 = It was 44 years ago!
“None of us were born then!”
“What an old codger!”
Now: J. Churchill Hindes came to
Iowa in 1969, back speaking today
2014 -1969 = It’s been 45 years!
“None of us were born then!”
“OMG! Who? Me? Old?!”
