ACC Phase III Informational Resources
Background
The Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (the Department) created the Accountable Care Collaborative (ACC) in 2011 to deliver cost-effective, quality health care services to its Colorado Medicaid members and to improve the health of Coloradans. The ACC features Regional Accountable Entities (RAEs) operating in seven regions.
Current contracts between the Department and the RAEs will end on June 30, 2025. The Department has developed goals and priority areas for improvement and innovation intended to better align with our modernized mission, advances made by our sister agencies, and stakeholder input received over the past several years.

The mission of the Department of Health Care Policy & Financing is to improve health care equity, access, and outcomes for the people we serve while saving Coloradans money on health care and driving value for Colorado. The ACC Phase III features are designed in support of achieving this mission.
