Clearer rules for Oregon Medicaid payments

For plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2027, Oregon must use a clearer, data-based Medicaid rate-setting process. These rates are fixed monthly payments per member to coordinated care organizations that arrange Medicaid care. The Oregon Health Authority must compare its data with organization data and identify adjustments. It must separately report costs of existing and new contract requirements, identify major contract cost changes, and share unusual statewide trends. Interested parties must get 90 days’ notice before discretionary fee-for-service payment changes, with monthly organization rates adjusted as needed. The authority must report preliminary rates and community input to the Oregon Health Policy Board in a timely way. These rules do not directly change household benefits or costs.
