A Patient Engagement HIT article highlighted a Letter to the Editor published in the most recent issue of The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®). In the letter, titled “Patient-Centered Care: Turning the Rhetoric Into Reality,” the authors discussed insights from their interviews with 15 leaders of accountable care organizations (ACOs).

Threnhauser wrote that Blake’s piece “gave real credence to this idea—showing the connection between a positive customer experience and the bottom line.”
