Transformation and Quality Strategy Technical Assistance

Coordinated care organization (CCO) staff are invited to participate in technical assistance for developing their Transformation and Quality Strategy (TQS).

The work highlighted in the TQS is not a comprehensive catalogue or full representation of the CCO’s body of work in any component area.
  • CCO submissions: See prior TQS submissions for each CCO.
  • Timeline: The 2024 TQS (covering January-December 2024) is due July 15, 2024. 
  • Contact: If you have questions, please contact Anona Gund (Anona.E.Gund@oha.oregon.gov or 503-381-1104).
