Grantee Spotlight: Association of Oregon Community Mental Health Programs and Oregon Primary Care Association

As part of the 2018–2020 State Learning & Action Collaborative, the Delta Center for a Thriving Safety Net funded the Association of Oregon Community Mental Health Programs (AOCMHP) and Oregon Primary Care Association (OPCA) to work together with their members to meaningfully improve care for vulnerable Oregonians. Together, they launched pilots of value-based integrated care and payment through CCBHC-FQHC dyads; fostered shared learning opportunities around VBP/C for memberships; and are collaborating to advance aligned organizational goals. Amid the COVID-19 public health emergency, AOCMHP and OPCA continue to collaborate at the local and state levels and are supporting their members in transforming care through telehealth while sustaining the regulatory and reimbursement gains that have been made.
