Testimonials

-- Mary Brainerd, President and CEO, HealthPartners

"ACHP isn't a traditional trade association with a traditional trade association agenda. It is unique in that it provides us a forum to discuss challenges and opportunities with other outstanding organizations from around the country. There is a great deal we can learn in our efforts for continuous improvement, and I believe there is a lot we can teach. We're excited to be part of a group whose aspirations for better quality health care align with our own."

-- Michael Cropp, MD, MBA, President and CEO, Independent Health

"I've been a member for more than 15 years. ACHP is a leadership organization that reflects the best in health care. My staff and I have always been able to learn from other members, and it is imperative that we continue to work together to shape the future of health care in America." 

-- George Halvorson, President and CEO, Kaiser Permanente

"ACHP knew a lot about how we performed on the quality rankings and used a tool it created to show us precisely where we could get even better. This level of insight is extremely valuable to us. Were happy to be on board and are excited to work with so many of America's best health plans on issues that affect each of our organizations."

-- Steve Youso, Chief Administrative Officer, Security Health Plan

"Capital Health Plan has maintained a focus on delivering high quality, cost effective care through a local delivery system focused on best practices for almost 25 years. We have earned an exceptional reputation in our own region of north Florida, and have been recognized among the top health plans in the nation by NCQA for quality and customer service. Our membership in ACHP allows us to continue to move forward in our pursuit of excellence by collaborating with other top-performing health care organizations with similar missions."

-- John Hogan, Chief Executive Officer, Capital Health Plan

"We have lots of name recognition in our community, but the Pittsburgh market is highly competitive. Like many of our ACHP colleagues, we face great challenges and opportunities in the years ahead. We look to ACHP's valuable business and marketplace programming to guide our decision making process."

-- Diane Holder, President, UPMC Health Plan

"ACHP's programs for health plan professionals are more clearly focused than those of other national organizations. The meetings are intimate and vendor-free. This encourages detailed, unbiased information sharing that is rarely if ever found at the larger conferences. The best part is that ACHP's agenda is intentionally geared toward community-based plans, so that there are always take-aways that pertain to my organization."

-- Michael Ostrov, MD, Medical Director, Group Health Cooperative of South Central Wisconsin
