Accountable care organizations (ACOs) are a new concept, especially in this region. In conducting a consumer survey prior to the introduction of this structure, Select Group finds that attitudes toward ACOs are very negative.

What statistics on people in America can you name that is misleading? Why?

The U.S. government keeps statistics on many people in America. One interesting statistic is the poverty rate. To be living in poverty, one must earn income below a certain threshold (approximately $900 per month). Many multimillionaires are included in this statistic. Recently, Barbara Streisand was “living in poverty.” In a particular year, she did not perform live, and her album sales were extremely slow. She has a great deal of wealth but had little income that year. Although she has more money than 99.99% of the rest of the population, the government believed that she was impoverished. What other statistic can you name that is misleading? Why?
