  2. Relative merits and challenges of physician-led vs. hospital-led accountable care networks
  3. The expense of setting up the infrastructure necessary for accountable care, for which there may be no source of payment in the near term
  4. The degree to which the new system will alter (or depend on) patient behavior
  5. The importance of developing multipayer alignment
