Hello District 5 Self-Sufficiency/Child Welfare Staff and Community Partners,

Tuesday Tidbits are short, specific info bites you can use and share to increase collective knowledge of Lane County's wide-ranging community resource landscape. Below you will find Mental and Physical Health resources being offered in and for our local community.

[cid:image004.jpg at 01DACC85.D80FED10]More Oregonians now qualify for free health coverage through a new benefit called Oregon Health Plan Bridge.
Oregon created the new eligibility category through a Medicaid demonstration assuring coverage for American Indian/Alaska Native populations and by establishing a Basic Health Program (BHP). Oregon is the third state in the nation to establish a BHP. Oregon's BHP will be administered by OHP, which also administers the state Medicaid program. The name references the goal to "bridge" the health coverage gap between people who have traditional OHP and people who have Marketplace coverage.
People in Oregon will qualify for OHP Bridge if they:

  *   Are 19 to 64 years old;
  *   Have an income between 138 percent and 200 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL);
  *   Have an eligible citizenship or immigration status; and
  *   Do not have access to other affordable health insurance
Please see the attached newsletter email to learn more.
