How our are children in Oregon doing?

There are 45,000 children born in Oregon each year. Medicaid pays for half of those births.

There are approximately 230,000 children under the age of five in Oregon.

At least one in four children under 5 are exposed to a well known set of risk factors - poverty, abuse, neglect, unstable housing.

Developmental Screening

In 2007, nationally, less than 20 percent of children received developmental

screening while at a primary care visit. Oregon continues to make improvements

in children on the Oregon Health Plan receiving screening.

Well-baby/Well-child Visits

Measure is the percentage of

children who had six visits with

health care provider prior to

15 months of age.

Statewide performance on this

measure declined. The

decline can likely be attributed

to the small denominator in

2013 and may also be due to

new members not receiving all

six visits in 15 months.

• 71.6% received four visits.

• 63.8 % received five visits.

Context

We spent a lot of money on services.

These services were too disorganized and disconnected from one another.

Trying to solve the complex problems facing children and families from Salem hadn’t worked.

Problem solving power is in the hands of communities.

Health System Transformation in Oregon

• The Oregon Health Authority

was created by the 2009

Oregon Legislature to be the

state’s single point of

accountability for health service

delivery and sustainable health

care costs.

• In 2011, the Oregon Legislature

created Coordinated Care

Organizations: local networks

of all types of health care

providers working together to

deliver care of Oregon Health

Plan clients.

18

19

Coordinated Care Organizations

• Community-based, strong consumer involvement in governance that

bring together various providers of services.

• Responsible for full integration of physical, behavioral and oral

health.

• Accountability through measures of health outcomes.

– Health Care System can not meet health outcomes with out leveraging

Early Learning System.

– Early Learning and Public School System will not meet educational

outcomes without leveraging Health Care System.

• Must engage Early Learning Hub in development of Community

Health Plan.

What we are most trying

to prevent:• Future generations of “high utilizers”

• Cascading adverse life events that

derail a healthy life.

Reach Out and Read

Doctors discuss the importance of reading with families at well child visits and each child is offered a new age-appropriate book to take home with them

10 clinics active and 8 medical clinics that are in training

Transformation Grant Projects

Enhance the communication and effectiveness around the coordinated care plans between education and health for children with developmental delay

Data sharing across systems

Family CORE: Yamhill Early Learning Hub

Collaboration of nine agencies that serve young children and their families

Any agency can send a referral form to a central agent through which a family is connected with the appropriate services
