On November 15, 2022, the Oregon Health Authority submitted an amendment to its Section 1115 Substance Use Disorder Demonstration requesting to temporarily expand Oregon Health Plan (OHP) coverage to certain individuals with income from 138%-200% of the federal poverty level currently enrolled in OHP. The amendment would allow those currently enrolled in OHP under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) to maintain enrollment until the state has established a Basic Health Care Program (BHP). The state is requesting that this amendment be effective on the first day of the month following the end of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency. The federal comment period will be open from November 30, 2022 to December 30, 2022.
