2 Oregon Health Authority 2015 Legislative Agenda HB 2419 (LC 473) OHA Housekeeping This measure amends or repeals statutes to align new statutory language as well as reflect current organizational structure and allow flexibility at the Oregon Health Authority (OHA). Changes Oregon Health Policy and Research (OHPR) to Oregon Health Authority (OHA) throughout statutes. Deletes references to OHPR Advisory Committee because it referred to when OHPR was outside of OHA/DHS. Expands the qualifications and experience that would qualify someone to be appointed as the State Public Health Officer (Public Health Division) Modifies definition of health care interpreter and revises membership of Oregon Council on Health Care Interpreters to better align with current business practice within OHA and those that govern CCOs. Removes all statutory references to Blue Mountain Recovery Center in ORS and ORS (Addictions and Mental Health Division) Aligns references relating to screening interviews and treatment programs for alcohol and drug diversion programs. Removes reference to prescription drugs and replaces the current definition of illegal drugs with the definition used in the Americans with Disabilities Act, allowing for people to be evicted if they have relapsed on alcohol or another controlled substance in residential treatment. SB 227 (LC 474) TBI Registry The measure amends the statute that established the Oregon Trauma Registry (OTR) to allow the state to create a Traumatic Brain Injury Registry, utilizing OTR data. The state will compile a case list from the Trauma Registry of persons who experienced a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The compiled case list would be shared with the Department of Human Services (DHS), Seniors and People with Disabilities program. DHS staff would use the case list information for services planning and to conduct outreach and follow up with people with TBI. The measure amends the Trauma Registry statute to allow data from the Trauma Registry to be used for public health epidemiologic studies that will support overall system improvement and prevention of injuries. The Trauma Registry was enacted in SB 228 (LC 475) RPS Fees RPS programs are 100% user-fee supported and are used to recover the direct costs of Radiation Protection Services (RPS) operations and administrative functions relating to the regulation of radiation. RPS is requesting a fee adjustment through statute to increase X-ray and tanning device registration fees and increase the radioactive material licensing fee cap. This will allow the RPS program to maintain fiscal solvency, and avoid staff reductions which could result in inadequate regulatory oversight. SB 229 (LC 476) Travel Stipend This concept will permit members of the Oregon Consumer Advisory Council (OCAC) to receive a stipend and travel reimbursement. This will align the compensation and expense reimbursement for members of OCAC with other AMH Advisory Councils Legislative Agenda

3 Oregon Health Authority 2015 Legislative Agenda HB 2420 (LC 477) 370 Evaluations This concept will require individuals charged with a misdemeanor or Class C felony and unable to aid and assist in their own defense due to a mental illness to be interviewed by the Community Mental Health Program Director or designee. The interview is to determine if the services, supports and supervision are available in the community to divert the individual from the state hospital to the community for restoration. HB 2421 (LC 480) MH Drugs to CCOs This measure would transfer the responsibility for management of all mental health drugs from FFS to CCOs and shift the associated dollars spent on these drugs from FFS to CCOs. This will allow the CCOs to coordinate all health delivery costs for their mental health clients. SB 230 (LC 481) Healthcare Workforce Information Collection This measure requires all health care regulatory boards to participate in the Oregon Healthcare Workforce Database, created by HB 2009 in Expanded data collection will allow the Legislature, OHA, and other industry and education stakeholders to better understand Oregon s current health care workforce and plan for future needs. SB 231 (LC 483) Primary Care Transformation Initiative This concept establishes an initiative that will strengthen investment and infrastructure for Oregon s primary care delivery system. Specifically, it would formalize a multi-payer primary care collaborative in statute and direct the group to design an initiative in which payers: a) pilot a small number of alternative primary care payments and develop benchmarks for success that would trigger continuation of the initiative past pilot phase; and b) make equitable investments in primary care transformation assistance.

4 Oregon Health Policy Board Planning Session January 6, 2015 SUMMARY On January 6, 2015, the Oregon Health Policy Board held a planning session to: Review and affirm the role of the OHPB; Reach a shared understanding of the OHPB s priorities over the next 1-3 years; Discuss and reach agreement on the how the board will work together to accomplish its goals All current Board members were present for the session. Priorities from the Governor Sean Kolmer, Health Policy Advisor to Governor Kitzhaber, shared the following priority areas that the Governor would like the Board to engage in over the coming year: 1. Integration of mental health and physical health systems. 2. Highlighting the success of PEBB (and soon, OEBB) in adopting the coordinated care model 3. Support in improving the behavioral health system and the community mental health system (both issues will be seen in the legislative session). OHPB Role The Board discussed its role and scope of its responsibilities. The Board is the policy-making and oversight body for the Oregon Health Authority. Through its policy-making role, the Board identifies and focuses on high-priority issues that require review, direction and insight. The board will seek to focus on issues of significant scope, magnitude and impact ( biggest worst first and burning platform ). The board s oversight role is focused on accountability to determine, for example, whether policies are moving in the intended direction; to ensure that systems or programs are coordinating or aligned whenever possible; and that CCOs continue to make progress. The oversight and policy-making roles are connected through a cycle of action. The Board first focuses on a priority issue, then initiates the policy-making process, which leads to the need for oversight and monitoring during development and implementation of that policy. The oversight that the Board provides allows for adjusting policies or programs midstream (e.g., providing feedback to staff or identifying potential areas of concern), as well as assessing the results of a fully implemented policy and identifying next steps (potentially restarting the cycle of action). To bolster its effectiveness and focus, the Board will continuously strengthen relationships with the Director of the Oregon Health Authority, the Governor s office, and the Legislature in order to ensure alignment, coordination, efficiency and accountability. Draft 1/28/15

5 2015 Board Meetings Staff will work with the Board to organize meetings that highlight questions for discussion and problemsolving on high priority issues. Presentations to the Board will be formatted for efficiency and timeliness, and will: Frame the question, challenge, or problem for the Board; Articulate the pros and cons of recommendations; Be transparent about point-of-view/position; Highlight the connections between different areas of work across the state and agency; Include information about other advisory or stakeholder groups working on the issue, and how Board consideration or action would contribute uniquely. The Board also may identify issues that potentially warrant the Board s attention and ask staff for additional information. Issue Prioritization In order to determine a work plan for 2015 (and for the future), the Board identified a number of principles to guide the prioritization process. When presented with an issue, risk, or challenge to potentially address, the Board will consider: The Triple Aim: How does this issue impact Oregon s goal of better health, better care, and lower costs? The governor s agenda: Does this align with the governor s priorities? Urgency and impact: What is the scope, magnitude, and timeliness of this issue? Is it a significant barrier to health care transformation? Does this issue affect a substantial number of Oregonians? Unique role: Are there other groups, agencies, or organizations already addressing this issue, or will the Board be able to offer a unique perspective? Oregon Health Policy Board 2015 Priorities The Board identified three overarching priorities for 2015: 1. Health System Transformation Monitoring The Board will continue to monitor and track the successes and challenges of CCO implementation. In the coming year, efforts such as integration of behavioral health, oral health and physical health systems in CCOs and the implementation of alternative payment methodologies will possibly be a focus. Additionally, the Board will continue to support the spread of the coordinated care model principles into PEBB, OEBB, and the commercial market. Relevant work groups: Coordinated Care Model Alignment work group; Sustainable Health Expenditures work group (SHEW), All Payer All Claims Technical Advisory Group 2. Behavioral Health Ongoing discussions about the behavioral health system in Oregon may lead to a variety of opportunities for the Board to engage, including integration efforts, enhanced community- Draft 1/28/15

6 based services and supports, barriers that impede care coordination, performance oversight informed by data,, workforce issues, and legislation. Relevant advisory groups: Addictions and Mental Health Planning and Advisory Council, Children s Services Advisory Council, Oregon Consumer Advisory Council, and other ad hoc groups as convened by the Governor s office and OHA. 3. Public Health The Public Health Modernization process will be addressed during the 2015 legislative session. The Board will follow the legislation and be ready to act accordingly. Population health issues will be routinely included in relevant health system discussions. In addition to these three priorities, the Board will continue to: Next Steps Oversee alignment and integration between health care system transformation and early learning system transformation via the Early Learning Council/OHPB Joint subcommittee; Identify ways in which the Workforce Committee can support work in the priority areas; Monitor the implementation of health information technology and movement on the HITOC legislation. Staff will gather information that pertains to the role of the Board in relation to the behavioral health and public health systems in the state for future discussion, including: o Funding streams at the federal, state, and local levels; o Articulation of a specific role that the Board can play in each arena; o Expected or ideal timeline for achieving milestones or addressing issues; o Specific ask for a concrete list of current challenges in each area; o Definitions (e.g., integration ); Staff will connect with the Governor s office to further clarify ways in which the Board might be involved in conversations related to the spread of the coordinated care model. Further Board discussion at February meeting will center on: o Board decision-making process; o Advisory panels or subject matter expertise. Draft 1/28/15
