Coalition for a Healthy Oregon Advancing health policy that empowers local communities.

The Coalition for a Healthy Oregon (COHO) is an association of eight Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) and provider groups that are working with many of Oregon’s coordinated care organizations (CCOs). COHO members serve Oregon's most vulnerable populations through the state’s Medicaid program, the Oregon Health Plan (OHP). We currently care for nearly half of the state’s OHP population, the majority of which are children under 18. COHO works with providers in their communities to assure access to high-quality, cost-effective care for those most in need. It has a proven record of balancing the essential, dynamic elements—cost, quality and access—required to effectively serve the health care needs of OHP members.
