Where Oregon’s Medicaid and coordinated care leaders convene.

2026 conference agenda

Oregon’s health system is at an important inflection point, and this year’s conference is designed to help us make sense of what’s ahead, learn from what’s working, and think together about where we go from here. On October 5 in Salem, we’ll hear directly from state leaders about the outlook for OHP and Oregon’s safety-net programs, explore what major policy and funding changes mean for organizations delivering care, and dig into what nearly 15 years of Oregon’s Coordinated Care Model have taught us.

Throughout the day, breakout sessions will highlight practical work happening across Oregon, from strengthening the behavioral health and social safety nets to sustaining community health worker services, building workforce pathways, advancing health equity, supporting housing and nutrition, partnering with Tribes and schools, and using data to drive community-led change. We’ll close with legislative leaders discussing the decisions that will shape Oregon’s path forward and how we can build a stronger, more sustainable health coverage and care system together.
