Public notices for the day of January 26, 2008

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Oregon Health Plan (OHP) is preparing to accept a limited number of new enrollees for its OHP Standard benefit package.

OHP Standard provides free or low-cost health insurance to Oregon residents who:

    • Do not have health insurance,

    • Are 19 years old or older,

    • Are not pregnant, and

    • Have limited income.

Because there are not enough openings to meet everyone’s needs, The Department of Human Services (DHS) is creating a new process called the OHP Standard reservation list. People interested in getting an application for OHP Standard must place themselves on the reservation list from January 28 - February 29, 2008.

Beginning in March, DHS will randomly draw a predetermined number of names monthly from the list and will mail OHP Standard application forms to those whose names are drawn.

From January 28 through February 29, 2008, people can place themselves, or have someone else place them, on the OHP Standard reservation list by using one of the following options:

• Submit a reservation list request online at www.oregon.gov/DHS/open/request-form.shtml.

• Complete and send a hard copy of the reservation list request form (OHP 3203) to DHS. The form is posted on the DHS Web site at www.oregon.gov/DHS/open/request-form.shtml and will be available at all DHS/AAA branch offices, county health departments, and most major hospitals and clinics.

• Call 800-699-9075 (phone) or 503-378-7800 (TTY), and ask to be placed on the OHP Standard reservation list. The phone bank will be open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. through 7 p.m. The call will take from 10-20 minutes. Someone may call for an individual -- they just need a full name, date of birth and mailing address.

For more information about the OHP Standard reservation list, go online to: www.oregon.gov/dhs/open or visit any DHS office.

Note: Only OHP Standard is closed. Other benefit packages, including those that cover pregnant women or people who are under 19 years of age, have different eligibility requirements. Individuals need to complete an OHP application if they think they may be eligible. OHP Applications are available by calling 800-359-9517 or at any DHS branch office.
