AI Summary

This bill requires all accountable care organizations (ACOs) certified under the state's health care law to report annually on various metrics related to their spending and performance. The reported information includes baseline expenditures for pre-ACO participation, ACO spending by different categories of care (e.g., behavioral health, primary care, acute care), the percentage of members eligible for care coordination services, and enrollment data for each community partner that works with the ACO. The goal of these reporting requirements is to increase transparency and oversight of ACOs, which are organizations that coordinate care for patients and aim to improve health outcomes while reducing costs.
