    Values

    Community

    EOCCO is deeply committed to building healthier communities within Eastern Oregon’s Medicaid populations. We coordinate fully with local hospitals and providers to get our members care where and when they need it.

EOCCO is here to ensure that all OHP members in Eastern Oregon have access to high-quality, affordable care by reducing health disparities, as well as social and financial obstacles to care.

While our aim is to facilitate the delivery of high-quality care to the communities we serve, we also want to equip OHP members with knowledge that will help them better understand their benefits and health needs for a more stable path to complete wellness.

Oregon Health Plan

The Oregon Health Plan (OHP) pays for low-income Oregonians to have healthcare. It is funded by the state of Oregon and the federal government. As part of OHP, the coordinated care model was developed. A coordinated care organization (CCO) is a group that includes all types of healthcare providers who have agreed to work together to help people who receive healthcare under the Oregon Health Plan. EOCCO is a coordinated care organization. We work together for OHP members in our community

Community Advisory Council

A Community Advisory Council (CAC) is a group of volunteers in each EOCCO county. Each CAC asks members for ideas to improve services from the EOCCO and our providers. They give us suggestions about EOCCO programs. They also organize activities that get EOCCO members involved in health issues.

The EOCCO Community Advisory Council is open to the public and public comment is encouraged. To get involved, for charters and bylaws, learn more or to share your ideas, please call GOBHI at 800-493-0040 or visit our Community Advisory Council page
