Under the partnership, the hospitals will share information related to reducing surgical complications, improving follow-up care and other medical techniques. According to the report, the hospitals hope that such an alliance will help to reduce costs and improve quality care for patients.
The Accountable Care Alliance will consist of a 12-member board, including six members from each hospital. The decision to pursue such a partnership was made due, in part, to increased interest in such arrangements during the recent healthcare debate, according to the report.
