ACO Partner

ACO Partner is a healthcare services company that assists independent physicians and provider groups in transitioning to value-based care models. Founded as a joint venture between McKesson and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona, the company provides population health management services, including care coordination, data analytics, and administrative support. Its primary goal is to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs by aligning the interests of payers and providers. The organization offers a physician-centric model that provides the necessary infrastructure for Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) to thrive in shared savings programs. Following McKesson's exit from the venture in 2019, the entity has continued to support the Arizona healthcare landscape under the full ownership of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona.
