• Need to align actions around the
Triple Aim
• No single sector or organization
can independently create
transformative, lasting change
• Clinical, community, and
government entities must
coordinate
• Shift from traditional State-
community outreach approaches
Recognizing the Need
A regionally governed, public-private
collaborative or structure tailored by the region
to align actions and initiatives of a diverse
coalition of participants in order to achieve
healthy communities and populations.

Core Functions of the ACH
Accountable Communities of Health (ACHs) will:
• Serve as a regional forum for collaborative decision-making across
multiple sectors and systems to align actions to achieve healthy
communities and populations, improve quality and lower costs.
• Act as an accelerator, disseminator and collector of regional best
practices, lessons learned and shared challenges to drive health
systems transformation focusing on population health, social
determinants of health, clinical-community linkages and whole person
care.
• Collectively impact health through regional purchasing strategies,
starting with Medicaid.
