Oregonians asked to comment on draft health reform plan
Images of Oregon
Throughout September, you will have a number of opportunities to comment on the draft plan for health care reform that lawmakers asked us, the seven citizen members of the Oregon Health Fund Board, to craft.

Hundreds of you already have participated in creating this plan. The draft will be available in early September. We will be presenting it across the state and want your feedback before finalizing our report in October; your comments will be summarized and forwarded with the Final Report to the Governor and Legislature.
Oregon Health Fund Board
The Oregon Health Fund Board is developing a comprehensive plan to ensure affordable quality health care for every Oregonian.

The Board, comprised of seven citizens, was chartered under the Healthy Oregon Act (SB 329) during the 2007 Legislative session. Board members were appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Oregon Senate to four-year terms. They have experience, knowledge and expertise in the areas of consumer advocacy, management, finance, labor and health care. They represent the geographic and ethnic diversity of the state.

The plan will be finalized in November 2008 and sent to the Governor and Oregon Legislative Assembly for consideration in session beginning January 2009.

Barney Speight is the Executive Director.
