Michigan for Advancing Collaborative Care Teams is a coalition of health care providers united and committed to growing, strengthening, and preserving the health care teams we all rely on for our care.
Focused on the “How”
When a person watches as a loved-one heads into a serious medical procedure, his or her thoughts aren’t primarily on how the operation will be conducted, but when that loved-one will be home again – safe, healthy, and healing.
But the “how” is critically important, and delivering the best care requires incredible collaboration. Trained experts. Compassionate caregivers. Committed professionals. A true team of individuals, each playing an essential role and doing their part – with the patient at the center of it all.
Preserving these teams is important because too often powerful special interest groups actually work to undermine patient care teams just to make a dollar.
Why?
It’s what patients deserve—and expect.
We advocate for policies that improve and strengthen inter-professional relationships, not weaken them.
We aim to ensure Michigan’s trusted physician oversight structure is working as intended.
