Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Strategy

Feedback on the Proposed Accountable Communities Model is Welcome

The Department will accept written feedback regarding the proposed Accountable Communities model up until 5:00 p.m. on Friday, May 4.  Feedback should be sent to michelle.probert@maine.gov.

VBP Regional Forums

Four regional forums were held in April 2012. The main objective of these forums was to gather suggestions and feedback from interested parties to aid the Department in the finalization of the Accountable Communities model for the anticipated issuance of a Request for Proposal in spring/ summer of 2012.
