Oregon Health Authority seeks input from Providence at Home with Compassus employees

This bulletin is being sent by the Washington State Health Care Authority (HCA) on behalf of the Oregon Health Authority (OHA).

Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is currently reviewing a proposed joint venture between Providence and Compassus whereby Compassus will become a 50 percent owner and take over the management of Providence’s home health and home hospice operations in Oregon.

This joint venture (“Providence at Home with Compassus”) has already taken effect in Washington. OHA is conducting a survey to understand how the change in Washington may have impacted Providence’s home health and hospice operations, staff, and services in Washington to date.

Survey details

OHA is looking to hear from:

Anyone who is currently working for Providence at Home with Compassus in Washington.
Anyone who recently (since November 2024) worked for Providence Home Health and Hospice, now Providence at Home with Compassus, in Washington.

The anonymous survey is open until September 30.
