OHA approves AllCare, Cascade Health Alliance, Umpqua Health Alliance for full five-year coordinated care contracts

The Oregon Health Authority announced that three CCOs that had received one-year contracts have met the necessary requirements to earn full five-year contracts to serve Oregon Health Plan members for 2020-2024: AllCare CCO, Cascade Health Alliance, and Umpqua Health Alliance. Services for the new CCO contracts begin January 1, 2020. These contracts have been referred to as "CCO 2.0."

Yamhill County Care Organization, the remaining CCO with a one-year contract, continues to make progress toward resolving its remediation plan.

In July when OHA announced its intent to award 15 organizations with contracts to serve as coordinated care organizations for OHP, these four did not show enough evidence in their applications to be awarded full five-year contracts. Instead they initially received a one-year contract. OHA required the four CCOs to show evidence they had policies, procedures and plans in place to meet the goals of CCO 2.0. OHA provided technical support to help the plans.
