Colleagues,
Since coming together in 1995, APP has been a physician-led organization with a governance structure that ensures your voice is heard in all decisions that impact the clinically integrated network (CIN). Thanks to your historical performance, APP is nationally recognized as the preeminent CIN and as the leader in value-based care.
Last week, we held our annual Governance Retreat with your APP Board of Directors. Your PHO Presidents participated to share local perspectives as we set strategy to continue to build upon our shared success and culture.
As we have done during our 28-year history, we candidly discussed our performance — where we did well and opportunities to improve at the retreat. We had strong results in many areas, but have seen our performance on Medicare Advantage (MA) and commercial capitation struggle over the last two years — performing worse than national average. APP has a history of taking on and overcoming performance challenges, and the board discussed that 2023 is the year we must improve our MA and commercial capitation performance from below average to top quartile, which will greatly benefit our patients and financially reward our physicians and hospitals.
