The state seeks to bring about changes in the health care delivery and financing system that will assure quality, affordable, and accessible health care for all Minnesotans. This goal will be accomplished by restructuring the delivery system, the financial incentives, and the regulatory environment in a way that will make health care providers and health plan companies more accountable to consumers, group purchasers, and communities for their costs and quality, their effectiveness in meeting the health care needs of all of their patients and enrollees, and their contributions to improving the health of the greater community.
