Our latest issue brief examines how risk-bearing accountable care organizations are approaching and implementing emerging technologies. Policy recommendations focus on advancing interoperability, strengthening value-based payment models, accelerating rapid-cycle evidence generation, and establishing practical governance frameworks to support safe, scalable, and outcomes-focused technology adoption.

Over the past decade, Duke-Margolis has progressed from a “startup” interdisciplinary center to a University Institute, through our collaborative research and reform activities to advance timely, evidence-based health policy. Reflecting our larger scale and potential for broader future impact, we are pleased to share that Kate Bundorf has been appointed Co-Director with Founding Director Mark McClellan. Kate will focus on creating greater synergies with Duke faculty research as well as strengthening our unique interdisciplinary educational programs for students across Duke University. Mark will focus on leading strong and expanding applied policy research at Duke-Margolis, and activities with policymakers and the health care community. Gillian Schmidler will continue in her role as Deputy Director in this new phase. Read more here: https://duke.is/y/9pmt

In just a few weeks, we are hosting an event in DC with West Health to explore the future of accountable care. While the model has largely proven more effective than traditional fee-for-service payment, and few stakeholders question the need for greater accountability for cost and quality, there is less agreement on what comes next. Join us on October 14 for a conversation on how to leverage evidence to accelerate accountable care: https://duke.is/b/9kxj
