2027 Health Care Provider Incentives Evaluation_DRAFT_Appendices V3
Summary
The Oregon Health Authority published draft appendices to its 2027 provider incentive program evaluation, covering the Behavioral Health Workforce Incentives programs created under Oregon HB 2949 (2021) and HB 4071 (2022). The appendices detail outcomes for concluded sub-programs including Peer Support Services, MHACBO, ASWB, and BLSW certification incentives, with total peer support grant funding of approximately $4.98 million across 53 subrecipients from June 2023 to January 2024. Ongoing programs including the Oregon Behavioral Health Loan Repayment Program and behavioral health scholarships are described but not fully evaluated in this cycle.
What this may mean
The appendices document workforce grant activity and do not create new regulatory obligations for providers. The Peer Support Services program distributed 1,190 bonuses and trained 533 peers across 16 Oregon counties, with 81 percent of subrecipients designated urban. Findings will inform the final report submitted to the Oregon legislature in January 2027 under HB 3261.
