Reproductive and Sexual Health

The Oregon Reproductive Health Program works with clinics across the state to offer free or low-cost reproductive health services and birth control. As part of the Adolescent, Screenwise and Reproductive Health (ASRH) Section, the Reproductive Health Program commits to working towards racial equity by addressing racism, acknowledging implicit bias, and shifting how we do what we do. We accept that our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) means a commitment to constant learning – we will make mistakes, but we are determined to learn from them and to improve. Racial Equity Values and Principles Adolescent, ScreenWise and Reproductive Health (ASRH) Section ASRH Community Engagement Principles and Values Purpose This document is intended to remind managers and staff of the section’s principles and commitments when making programmatic decisions, especially those related to community engagement efforts. The document is for internal programmatic use and not for public distribution. Vision The Adolescent Health, ScreenWise, and Reproductive Health Section (ASRH) envisions an Oregon where racial inequities are eliminated, and all community members are empowered to thrive. Community Engagement Principles ASRH centers its racial equity work around community engagement and acknowledges the following principles as we work toward our vision: Government agencies, programs, and policies create harm in Black, Indigenous, and other communities of people of color. Historically, these communities have experienced health disparities resulting in delayed access to care, poorer health outcomes, and ongoing trauma. ASRH must center the needs and voices of these communities in developing policies, programs, and procedures to eliminate racial disparities in health. Long-term partnering with organizations run by and for these communities is key to lessening the racial disparities in health and improving health outcomes for all Oregonians. Taking risks and trying new strategies to support these communities serves ASRH’s vision. Community Engagement Values & Commitments ASRH leadership and staff commit to the following values and strategies to work toward our vision in collaboration with communities of people who historically have experienced health disparities. Restorative Practices We invest in long-term partnerships with a diverse network of community-based organizations, clinics, and non-profit organizations. We provide resources and funding to community partners. We create programming and procedures with community partners to meet community needs, reduce barriers, and lessen disparities in health outcomes. We develop a culture of continuous learning to help all communities thrive. We hold ourselves accountable and work Lived Experience We prioritize partnerships with organizations that serve the needs of communities that historically have experienced health disparities. We recruit, employ, and provide professional development opportunities for staff with lived experience navigating the intersections of race, class, gender, disability, and health care. We collect and share data and information that justly reflect the people they represent. Proactive and Responsive Community Engagement We communicate with community partners in a clear, honest, and timely way. We gather and value feedback from communities to develop, implement, and improve our policies and services. We evaluate the policies we develop and the quality of services we provide by how they benefit and/or burden communities most impacted by racial disparities in health.

Immunizations

Oregon Health Authority and the West Coast Health Alliance continue to endorse the childhood vaccination recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). Read more about why AAP recommendations make the most sense for children living in the United States. The federal government issued an executive order Aug. 10 that calls for substantially changing the vaccination schedule for children in the United States. This action does not change the vaccination recommendations in Oregon. Additionally, federal officials have made misleading claims about vaccines and autism. However, decades of scientific research have proven that vaccines do not cause autism. Learn more about autism research, including known genetic and environmental risk factors, on the AAP and Autism Foundation websites. Protect yourself and your family Immunizations are the best way to protect you and members of your family and community against many diseases. Recommended immunizations begin at birth and continue throughout one's lifetime, with special emphasis on children under age 2. Infant, child and adolescent immunization Children need a variety of vaccinations at multiple stages of their growth and development. Starting from the day they're born, all the way through high school, vaccines protect the youngest members of our communities from disease, disability and death.

Choose a CCO

OHP's local health plans are coordinated care organizations or CCOs. Except for extra services and pharmacies, all CCOs offer the same OHP benefits. You choose your CCO when you apply for OHP. If you are an OHP member and don't have a CCO, you can choose one in your dashboard at ONE.Oregon.gov. You can also call Client Services (800-273-0557). If you don't know if you have a CCO, you can ask Client Services. What are CCO plans? CCOs are plans in your area that help you use your OHP benefits. A CCO has a local group of providers like doctors, counselors and dentists who work together to keep you healthy. This means that no matter where you get care, your CCO knows you. Your CCO can work with you to make sure you stay healthy. How CCOs take care of you Instead of just treating you when you get sick, CCOs work with you to keep you healthy. CCOs can help you manage your health conditions. There may be added services for members with chronic conditions such as diabetes, asthma and heart disease, or for those with other health needs. CCOs may give and cover some benefits that OHP does not cover, such as weight loss classes. You and your family can get medical, dental and behavioral health care when you need it. CCOs can: Give you a health care team to work with Help your caregivers and family members join your team Help you avoid testing or services you already had or don’t really need Give you the tools and support you need to stay healthy and Give you advice that is easy to understand and follow. Some CCOs provide extra services. These are items or services to support your health or manage a condition. Some extra services are available to all members. Others are available on a case-by-case basis or by special request. You can contact each CCO for a full list of services and how to access them. Most people must be in a CCO to use their OHP benefits American Indians, Alaska Natives, and members with Medicare have other options. American Indian and Alaska Native members can join, change or leave their CCO at any time. (You will still need to choose a CCO for dental care.) Members with Medicare can change or leave the CCO they use for medical care at any time. Medicare members must use a CCO for dental and mental health care. If you don't want to be in a CCO, you can call 800-273-0557 and tell us. Tips for choosing a CCO Call the doctor’s office or clinic you have now (if you have one). Ask which OHP plan the provider takes. Find out if the CCO’s providers are near where you live. Find the CCOs listed for your area. Call them or go to their websites to learn which doctors, nurses, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, dentists and mental health providers you can use. If you do not choose a CCO when you renew or apply for OHP OHA will choose a CCO for you unless you are American Indian or Alaska Native. OHA will choose a CCO in your area that is open to new members. If you are enrolled in Medicare OHA will enroll you in a CCO that covers medical, dental and behavioral health care. You don’t have to get your medical care through the CCO. If you want to change this, you need to tell us. Learn more about how the Oregon Health Plan and Medicare work together. Learn how to change your CCO enrollment. If you are American Indian or Alaska Native OHA will not enroll you in a CCO. OHA will pay for your medical, dental and behavioral health care. You don’t have to get your medical care through the CCO. If you want to change this, you need to tell us. You can fill out the OHP 720 form to do this.

Vaccines and Immunization

Vaccines are one of the biggest successes in public health. They help stop the spread of illness, keep people out of hospitals and save lives. Changes in national vaccine guidelines have caused confusion on who should get vaccines and when. In response, Oregon has joined the West Coast Health Alliance to ensure our public health advice is based on science and facts. Oregon Health Authority (OHA) supports vaccination recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. The recommendations from these trusted organizations are reflected in Oregon's Model Immunization Protocols. OHA stands by science and is committed to ensuring all people in Oregon have access to safe, effective vaccines.
