In this session, leaders from Tufts Medicine Integrated Network (TMIN) and ReportingMD share how they built a clinically trusted, enterprise-wide data foundation that enabled full ACO readiness, improved quality scores, and unlocked significant shared savings improvements.

Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are under increasing pressure to improve performance, meet quality benchmarks, and optimize financial outcomes, all while managing data across disparate systems. Too often, the conversation centers on dashboards and reporting tools, yet overlooks a more fundamental capability: data acquisition.

The 2026 CMS Final Rule introduces one of the most comprehensive and consequential shifts in the evolution of value-based care.

Healthcare organizations must respond with clarity and urgency.
