Compass Project: Service Groups

The service group framework uses information collected in a person's Oregon Needs Assessment to place them in a service group of people of a similar age and who have a similar level of need for support services. There are 14 service groups.

• Service groups provide a consistent way to determine the number of monthly hours a person receives for services. 
• See the range of hours for each service group:

• Service groups also guide how much a provider will be paid for their services. 
• They do not determine the type of services a person receives. The Individual Support Plan does this.
