On the Wednesday, December 22nd 2010 program at 11AM Pacific and 2PM Eastern, thought leader, blogger, lecturer and consultant Kent Bottles, MD, returns for an encore conversation.

We'll highlight key points in several of the recent reports issued, here(http://bit.ly/idB1Fr), here (http://bit.ly/g2Lw3a) and here (http://bit.ly/hmH88S), by the Center for American Progress, the California Healthcare Foundation, and Health Affairs, respectively on ACOs, and provide somewhat of a primer for physicians who may not be familiar with the PPACA's ('ACA') provisions and the enabling language defining Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) in the ACA.
