[CAPP] Updated info and links for Oregon Health Plan Programs

[Diane J PIETRZAK]

Dear CAPP Community Partners,

Here is some updated information about DHS taking reservations for the Oregon Health Plan Standard Program & Healthy Kids.  Please help DHS spread the word to our uninsured citizens!  To keep current on the status of the OHP Standard reservation list, please frequently check the web at:

Reservation list for the Oregon Health Plan
 
On November 1st the Oregon Department of Human services will be taking reservations for Oregon Health Plan Standard coverage for adults. Because there is such a high demand for health care coverage, we will do a random drawing of names from the list. Our goal is to make sure that everyone possible who qualifies for the spots available has an equal chance. Therefore the list will be opened on November 1st and stay open for more than a year. To qualify, uninsured adults must have incomes under the federal poverty level.   An explanation of the federal poverty level, go to: 
http://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty/09poverty.shtml

For adult health care coverage, please come back to this website on November 1 to sign up for the reservation. However, if you have uninsured children, don't wait.
