Committed to making healthcare work better for everyone.
Our ultimate goal is helping doctors achieve the best possible results for patients. This includes services available through the Southwestern Health Resources (SWHR), including support designed specifically for Medicare beneficiaries.
One of the ways we are improving care for Medicare patients is through our Accountable Care Organization (ACO). We bring doctors, hospitals, and caregivers together, teams focused on coordinating high-quality care for patients. This helps ensure the right care is provided at the right time.



What exactly is an ACO?
Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are groups of doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers which come together voluntarily to help Medicare patients get the care that’s best suited for their individual need. This helps avoid unnecessary duplication of services, as well as prevents medical errors.
Get the care you need, whenever you need it.
To take advantage of our services, you’ll need a primary care physician participating in our network. If you already have a primary care physician (or need to find one), take a look at our website to see names of doctors that are designated as ACO Participating Physicians.
Remember, the ACO is not a health plan. It doesn’t require you to stay in a plan or change your Medicare coverage. You can visit any physician or hospital that accepts your Medicare coverage, whenever you choose.
