Open House On Oregon Health Plan Changes Scheduled For October 13, 2011

PUBLIC MEETING ON OREGON HEALTH PLAN CHANGES OCT. 13

The public is invited to learn more about proposed changes to the Oregon Health Plan at a community meeting Thursday, Oct. 13 in Astoria.

The meeting takes place 6-8 p.m. at Clatsop Community College in Columbia Hall Room 219.

The new program, approved by the Oregon Legislature and set to go into effect in 2012, calls for organizing Oregon Health Plan providers into Coordinated Care Organizations. It is designed to provide a continuum of integrated care for OHP patients’ physical, mental and dental health services, while at the same time reducing the state’s Medicare and Medicaid expenses.

Keep up the updates! I don't take the Daily so your highlights of their news are certainly newsworthy to me.

Hope you don't mind but I linked to your site from mine.
