Shaping a Healthier Oregon Through Collaboration and Innovation
The Oregon Health Leadership Council (OHLC) emerged in 2008 from collaborative efforts with the Oregon Business Council, which is dedicated to enhancing the state’s healthcare strategy. OHLC began with a vision to be a value-producing collaboration working within the healthcare industry to mitigate rising healthcare costs.
Over the years, OHLC’s scope expanded, encompassing health IT, clinical best practices, and addressing social determinants of health. Our commitment remains steadfast—to enhance healthcare for all people in Oregon, reflected in our three strategic pillars: Thriving Workforce, Whole-Person Care, and Reducing Costs. As the work we do together with our partners continues to flourish, so do the organization’s communication needs.
We’re excited and proud to introduce our new website, logo, and strategy to our members, collaborative partners, and other organizations within Oregon. This initiative aims to enhance our reach and align with the dynamic needs of healthcare organizations across the state.
OHLC remains dedicated to improving healthcare for every individual in Oregon, and these enhancements mark a significant step forward in our ongoing mission. We invite our members, collaborative partners, and organizations throughout Oregon to explore the resources and opportunities on our new platform as we collectively strive for a healthier and more resilient healthcare system.
A few resources we’d like to highlight:
- Oregon’s Value-based Payment (VBP) Compact: VBP Toolkit—an actionable toolkit for payers and providers seeking to develop and implement VBP models.
- Connect Oregon: A First Look at Connect Oregon Implementation, 2021-2022—evaluation reports developed with the research team at UCSF SIREN
- Opioid Use Disorder Treatment: A Toolkit for Oregon Emergency Departments—developed by OHLC’s Best Practice Committee
- HIT Commons: Quarterly EDIE Dashboards—for ongoing, statewide and regional Emergency Department utilization trends.
Thank you and we look forward to your continued partnership.
Janet Campbell
OHLC, President
