The Johns Hopkins ACG System models and predicts an individual’s health over time using existing data from medical claims, electronic medical records, and demographics like age and gender.
You gain the insights you need to evaluate and compensate providers, stratify risk, identify patients who would benefit from care management and forecast health care utilization.

For more than 30 years Johns Hopkins statisticians, economists and health care providers have collaborated with users to continually improve the ACG System’s ability to describe population health.
Close to 200 million lives are impacted by the ACG System worldwide as health systems, health organizations, insurance companies, accountable care organizations (ACOs) as well as individual clinics and clinicians rely on the ACG System for health care analytics and insights into population health.
From the beginning, the ACG System has provided a more accurate representation of the health of the general population by transforming health care data into actionable information.
By capturing the morbidity burden of populations, the Johns Hopkins ACG System helps explain and predict how health care resources are delivered and consumed.

Understand the health care needs of a population or subgroup. By taking into account the differences in illness burden among different patient populations, the ACG System helps you determine variations in disease prevalence as well as resource use.
Optimize your case management and disease management programs. With the ACG System you can identify up to 25% more individuals for care management before they become high utilizers.
You can use the ACG System to establish capitation rates, reimbursement rates and insurance premiums. You can also use it to allocate resources within a health system to appropriately target populations in greatest need.
