So is this deja vu all over again? Have we stepped back in time a couple of decades to re-experience managed care failures of an earlier era? Certainly, some rpoviders see the ACO structure as a way to increase market share, margin and bargaining power -- and it's a no-downside financial deal. As noted above, it cannot be only that. There are significant costs and potentially difficult negotiations ahead as providers across the continuum work with the regulators to hash out the final status of the ACO landscape, and then deal with integrating themselves into one or more ACOs with a laser focus on patient-centered care. That focus should yield benefits up and down the line: for patients, providers and ultimate payors in both the public and private sectors.
