Cigna CI and BayCare Health System are extending their long-standing
relationship through two new agreements that include the launch of a
collaborative accountable care initiative with BayCare Physician Partners and
a new three-year agreement for BayCare's 10 hospitals and other affiliated
facilities to continue to be a part of Cigna's network through 2015. The new
agreements became effective January 1, 2013.
Collaborative accountable care is Cigna's approach to accomplishing the same
population health goals as accountable care organizations, or ACOs. The
Cigna/BayCare initiative is designed to expand patient access to health care,
improve care coordination, and achieve the “triple aim” of improved health
outcomes (quality), affordability and patient satisfaction.
