Who We Are
ACT develops and deploys advanced technology and artificial intelligence solutions that solve today's most pressing healthcare challenges — designing value-based solutions that enhance the patient's experience, streamline administrative processes, manage costs, and ultimately, improve lifelong health.
Built on a Vision of Value-Based Care
Our journey dates to the earliest days of value-based healthcare. Dr. Bill McAlemouth, ACT Emeritus Chief Medical Officer and ACT Advisor, was challenged by the Head of UCSD Medical School to determine if UCSD provided value. He worked with paper, pencil and stacks of charts to identify the true indicators of quality of patient outcomes and efficiency.
He consulted with Edward Deming and worked with Michael Porter to define value-based healthcare nearly 40 years ago. Today we have six proprietary algorithms that calculate value-based care by physician-patient DRG procedure. We are near releasing a new version that provides institutions with three dashboards: 1) C-Suite, 2) Department Chair and, 3) Individual Physician.
ACT develops and deploys advanced technology and artificial intelligence solutions that solve today's most pressing healthcare challenges. We design value-based healthcare solutions that enhance the patient's experience, streamline administrative processes, manage costs, and ultimately improve lifelong health. Our vision is universal access to healthcare for all people globally.
Alliance Care Technologies believes global health is improved when physicians, patients, researchers, and entrepreneurs work together to improve quality and efficiency across the continuum of healthcare.
