Physicians have been forced to join their local hospitals, which can often lead to less time and attention with Medicare Beneficiaries.A health care Accountable Care Organization (ACO) is a group of doctors, hospitals and other providers who work together to coordinate care for Medicare beneficiaries.Vytalize Health’s ACO supports our practice through a new model of health care that enables us to provide more personalized care while remaining independent.
