Your Oregon Your Health
We Want to Hear From You About Health Care!
Health care is on everyone’s mind. Health insurance costs, quality of care, access in our communities – there are many concerns that affect all of us. While the health care system is broken, there’s a process in place to fix it. Oregon leaders are developing a proposal for quality, affordable health care for Oregonians. But what does that mean for you?
Join us at a community near you for an important public discussion on health care in Oregon.
Everyone’s voice matters:
- people with or without health care
- employers
- seniors
- people with disabilities
These events are free and interpreters and child care are available.* Your input will help shape the future of health care in our state.
You can also get involved in the conversation online at a new website on health reform in Oregon. Share
