Where Independent Primary Care Succeeds in Value-Based Care

Supporting Value-Based Care

Los Rios ACO LLC, formed in 2019, is an organization built and owned by primary care clinicians within New Mexico. Los Rios ACO was established for the sole and express purpose of building a community of clinicians whose focus is on value-based contracts and the underpinnings that drive success in those programs (i.e. patient satisfaction, care coordination, utilization management, etc.). Los Rios ACO holds and participates in several payers’ fee-for-service and fee-for-value contracts across all lines of business. Los Rios ACO participates in the Medicare Shared Savings Program for our Traditional Medicare patients.

Coming together with other “like” organizations through an accountable care organization (ACO) alleviates the pressure that comes with high costs and administrative burdens, so independent practices can concentrate on delivering exceptional patient care.
