The model includes a network of Western New York physicians partnering with health system Kaleida and health insurer BCBS to create a physician-led organization. It’s a first of its kind healthcare delivery model for the Buffalo region in that it combines a health plan, health system and group of physicians providing patient-centered care.
It’s essentially a commercial accountable care organization. Kaleida Health refers to it as a “strategic partnership” intended to “assure accountability for both the clinical outcomes of the patients and the costs of the care delivery model.”
