Arizona Care Network

A Better State of Care

Set location

ACO

Accountable Care Organization

An Accountable Care Organization (ACO) is a group of clinicians and hospitals that voluntarily work together to coordinate care and improve quality for a defined population.

ACN's role

Arizona Care Network operates as a joint venture between major Phoenix-area health systems, contracting with Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payers to manage population health.

Employer impact

When employees use in-network ACN-aligned providers, care is more likely to stay coordinated — reducing duplicate tests, out-of-network surprise bills, and emergency overutilization.

Measure what matters

ACN reports on quality, utilization, and member experience to payer and employer partners. Care Compass steers members toward aligned providers without exposing raw scores.
