Abstract
Healthcare in the United States is in a tumultuous state of reformation. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010 was designed to restructure a system of healthcare in America that is both fragmented and financially unsustainable. The foundational components of this new legislation require healthcare leaders to refocus on the patient. Strategies to facilitate patient-centered care include: volume to value-based economics, models of accountable-care organizations, interdisciplinary team decisions, and patient/family/user-driven technologies.1
