This report develops recommendations on how states can support CCOs. The recommendations are drawn from visits to seven pilot programs in NC, MN, MA, NY, VT, WI. This report reviews the challenges the CCOs encounter in measuring quality and offers a comprehensive approach for developing an actionable measurement set.
