<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Business Managers, Superintendents & Benefits Administrators:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ODS Health Plan will soon begin a multi-phase process of changing their name to Moda Health. This is purely a name change to better reflect the overall services they provide and the communities they serve. OEBB member benefits and provider
networks will not be affected in any way.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ODS will start communicating this change directly to members in early April and they plan to change the look of their website in early May. All current ODS contact information will continue to work over a transition period of nine to 14
months, so although the look and logo will change, you and your employees will still have easy access to online services and information.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ODS has provided the attached flyer to help communicate this change to OEBB entities. You and your employees will be hearing more about this transition directly from ODS/Moda Health in future months.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have any questions regarding the upcoming name change and communications to your employees, please contact me directly by email at
<a href="mailto:jackie.cowsill@state.or.us">jackie.cowsill@state.or.us</a>, or by phone at 503-378-5353. Thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
