The ACO, set to launch Oct. 1, will focus on improving health outcomes for about 100,000 children who have Medicaid coverage through CareSource. CareSource is Ohio’s largest managed care provider.
Under the program, Akron Children’s will manage care through a new company called the Akron Children’s Health Collaborative. The organization will focus on preventive care and access.
