Overview
Through the Sustainable Health Care Cost Growth Target (CGT) Program, the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) sets the expectation that total health care spending should not grow more than a certain percentage each year.
Each year, OHA collects and reports data to understand Oregon's cost growth relative to the target and to understand what is driving health care cost growth in the state. Health plans and provider organizations with cost growth above the target without an acceptable reason may be held accountable.
Oregon's cost growth target for 2021-2025 is 3.4%. Oregon's cost growth target for 2026-2030 is 3.75%. Click here for more details about the cost growth target for 2026-2030.
Mandatory Reporters
Using the latest health insurance enrollment data from the Oregon Division of Financial Regulation, OHA identifies mandatory reporters based on the type of the organization, the number of lives it covers in Oregon, and the lines of business it operates. CGT mandatory reporters are payers and licensed third-party administrators with at least 1,000 covered lives in Oregon across all required lines of business (commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid; see OAR 409-065).
