NAACOS Winter 2022 Boot Camp provides expert insight into the core competencies for ACOs and DCEs. Boot camp faculty will present essential resources and policy updates as well as the basics on successful care management and resource allocation. Faculty will also facilitate learning groups for ACOs, DCEs, and those interested in either model. These learning groups will drill down into issues such as using data, claims and reports, as well as operationalizing care management tools and managing waivers. The format for this boot camp will include presentations by leaders in accountable care, case studies, hands-on exercises, and peer-to-peer learning. After completing two full days, boot camp attendees will leave with actionable knowledge to enhance the most critical operations within their ACO or DCE.
