JACKSON CARE CONNECT
HEALTH RELATED SERVICES
Health-related services (HRS) or "flex funds" are non-covered services that are offered in addition to covered benefits of the Oregon Health Plan (OHP) through Coordinated Care Organizations (CCOs) to improve care delivery and overall member and community health and well-being. HRS may also be referred to as flexible services, or flex/flexible funds.

HRS are NOT intended to address emergency situations. CCOs are not required to offer flexible services. A CCO can decide to approve or deny flexible services requests on a case-by-case basis. Each CCO sets its own standards for which services to approve.

Individuals who are dual enrolled in both Medicare/Medicaid might be eligible for air conditioners.

HRS vary by an individual's CCO, and may include:

-Helping a person get a cell phone if having one will give them better access to their providers for telehealth
-Transit passes for members who need transportation for health-related needs beyond covered appointments
-Providing an air conditioner for a person whose medical diagnosis is affected by heat
-Accesses to a yoga studio or gym membership for a person whose back pain would be improved by an exercise class
-Preventing utilities shutoff to maintain service to medical equipment
-A class on cooking healthy meals for a person with diabetes
- Limited assistance with finding housing, move-in costs, and maintaining housing for OHP members facing certain life challenges
Eligibility: Current Jackson Care Connect members

Health-related services are limited, not immediate, not guaranteed or continuously available, and individuals may not qualify.

Health-related services must meet requirements for activities that improve health care quality or expenditures related to health information technology.
