Oregon’s Health System Transformation • Began implementing the coordinated care model within coordinated care organizations (CCOs) in 2012 • CCOs are networks of all types of health care providers (physical health, addictions and mental health, and dental care) who work together to serve Oregon Health Plan (Medicaid) members • Now spreading the coordinated care model to other payers
Community Advisory Councils (CACs) Oregon Statute: CCOs must have a CAC to ensure that the health care needs of the consumers and the community are being addressed. CACs must: • Include representatives of the community and of the government of each county served by the CCO. Consumer representatives must constitute a majority of the membership.
Community Advisory Councils (cont.) • Identify and advocate for preventive care practices to be utilized by the CCO • Oversee a community health assessment and adopt a community health improvement plan to serve as strategic guidance for the CCO to address health disparities and meet health needs for the communities in their service area(s) • Annually publish a report on the progress of the community health improvement plan

Community Health Improvement Plans: Overview A CHIP is based on data from the CHA. It is a detailed working outline used to: • identify priority issues. • develop strategies for action. • ensure accountability for creation of measurable health outcome improvement. • guide our work as CAC members.
Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) The activities, services and responsibilities defined in the plan may include, but are not limited to: • Analysis and development of public and private resources, capacities and metrics based on ongoing community health assessment activities and population health priorities; • Health policy; • System design; • Outcome and quality improvement; • Integration of service delivery; and • Workforce development.
