I)( 20402” 9 3?s I SBN 0-16 -038015-4 Foreword As part of an eventual statewide set of health insurance reform measures, the State of Oregon has proposed implementing a demonstration program, with Federal cofunding, that would change the State’s existing Medicaid program in three fundamental ways. It would: 1) expand coverage to include all persons with incomes up to 100 percent of the Federal poverty level; 2) enroll all covered persons in some form of managed care, such as with a health maintenance organization or a ‘‘gatekeeper’ primary care physician; and 3) determine acute and primary health care benefits according to a ranked list of services, with actual benefits dependent on the level of program funding. Concern about the effects of Oregon’s Medicaid proposal on program recipients, and the potential ramifications of the proposal for the ongoing national health care debate, prompted Congress to ask the Office of Technology Assessment to examine the proposal in detail. This report was prepared in response to a request from Representative John Dingell, chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Representative Henry Waxman, chairman of the House Subcommittee on Health and the Environment, The request for this study was endorsed by Senator Al Gore, Chairman of the Senate Subcommittee on Science, Technology, and Space, and by the Oregon delegation, including Senator Bob Packwood, Senator Mark Hatfield, Representative Les AuCoin, Representative Peter DeFazio, Represen- tative Mike Kopetski, Representative Ron Wyden, and Representative Robert F.
