  • 2016 Recognition Targets for Hospitals
    Patient Safety Reporting Program 2016 Recognition Targets for Hospitals March 2016 Recognition targets provide attainable goals for healthcare facilities participating in the Patient Safety Reporting Program (PSRP). Targets can also help facilities incrementally and effectively build adverse event review and reporting into their culture of safety. On a statewide level, targets ensure OPSC receives enough adverse event reports to build a strong database of prevention strategies so that all Oregon healthcare facilities can learn from one another. Targets are effective as of January 1, 2016. Although a participant may meet or exceed targets at any time throughout the year, the facility should continue to report adverse events according to reporting program guidelines. Healthcare facilities that meet targets are recognized annually for their transparency efforts and commitment to patient safety. For more information, visit oregonpatientsafety.org.

    Q3 2018 HOSPITAL UTILIZATION AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS November 19, 2018 4000 Kruse Way Place • Suite 100 • Lake Oswego, OR 97035 • Tel: (503) 479-6034 • www.apprisehealthinsights.com APPRISE HEALTH INSIGHTS IS A SUBSIDIARY OF THE OREGON ASSOCIATION OF HOSPITALS AND HEALTH SYSTEMS © 2018 Apprise Health Insights Q3 2018 HOSPITAL UTILIZATION AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS ABOUT THIS REPORT This report aims to provide a quarterly analysis of the utilization and financial data submitted by Oregon’s hospitals to the DATABANK program. DATABANK is a state-mandated monthly hospital data program administered by Apprise Health Insights in collaboration with the Office for Oregon Health Policy and Research (OHPR). Please note that all DATABANK data are self-reported by the hospital and represent a twelve-month calendar year. Accuracy is the responsibility of the reporting hospitals. Because this report’s objective is to provide a complex dive into the data, the graphs and methods may change between reports. This forces only the most compelling stories to be exhibited. The determination of which graphs and stories to focus on is evaluated by hospital finance and data experts at Apprise. Note: Kaiser Sunnyside and Kaiser Westside hospitals are excluded from this analysis due to the lack of financial data available in DATABANK. LAYOUT INFORMATION Aggregate vs Median This report uses two statistics to report statewide hospital data: median and aggregate. Aggregate numbers sum up the entire amount for all hospitals into one number, where median only takes the number from the middle of the pack. Aggregate is useful when looking at the industry as a whole, such as the percent of Medicaid charges or the total number of patients visiting Emergency Departments in the state.

  • OHA Hospital Types
    Hospital Types Oregon Health Authority categorizes hospitals based on their size, distance from another hospital, and reimbursement level. The OHA Hospital Reporting Program primarily uses three type designations: DRG, Type A, and Type B. All of the 60 acute care inpatient hospitals fall into one (and only one) of these three categories. However, there are several other state and federal designations that can impact a hospital’s financial and utilization measures. The following table provides details and definitions for all such hospital categories, as well as counts for the number of each type of hospital in Oregon. These counts are not cumulative, as some hospitals may be categorized in multiple ways. The next page contains a complete list of Oregon’s 60 acute care inpatient hospitals by category. Designation Number Description DRG hospitals are typically large urban hospitals that receive standard DRG 27 Medicare Diagnostic Related Group (DRG) based reimbursement. Type A hospitals are small hospitals (with 50 or fewer beds) that are located Type A 12 more than 30 miles from another hospital. Type B hospitals are small hospitals (with 50 or fewer beds) that are located Type B 21 within 30 miles of another hospital. Type C hospitals are rural hospitals with more than 50 beds that are not a Type C 2 referral center. These hospitals are also uniformly DRG hospitals. OregonDesignations Health district hospitals are hospitals under the control of a formal health district. In most cases the controlling entity is the local county government. Being a part of a health district allows these hospitals access to additional Health District 12 funds from tax sources to contribute to operations.

  • CCO Plan Comparison Guide
    Pick Your Plan CCO Plan Comparison Guide 2020 New health plan choices are coming to the Oregon Health Plan (OHP) in 2020. OHP has local health plans that help you use your benefits. These plans are called coordinated care organizations or CCOs. This guide will help you Consider, Compare and Choose your plan. Why is OHP asking members to pick a plan? You count on the Oregon Health Plan for your health care. Your benefits are not changing, but the health plans or CCOs that help you use your benefits are changing. In some areas of the state, there will be new CCO plans. In other areas, CCO plans are closing. You get to compare the plans in your area and decide what works best for you and your family. New plans will start January 1, 2020. This guide is for OHP members who live in areas where choices of CCO plans have changed. If you are looking for information about a CCO and don’t see it in this guide, go to OHP.Oregon.gov. 2 CCO Plan Comparison Guide: Introduction How did I get matched with a plan? OHP matched you with a CCO plan based on the mental health and primary care providers you have seen in the past 24 months. We heard from members and health care providers that OHP’s main goals during this transition should be: • Keeping members with providers they see now and • Not disrupting their care. OHP values your choice. You do not need to keep the CCO plan OHP matched you with.
