Book Health Reforms in Oregon

Download or read book Health Reforms in Oregon written by Ontario. Legislative Library and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The state of Oregon has developed a unique and inventive model for addressing the rapidly rising costs and grossly inequitable access to health care in the United States. The state's medical plan is designed to cover a defined range of medical services for the whole population. Under this plan, a list of conditions and their treatments was developed after extensive public consultation, the procedures were ranked in order of priority, and the state is to cover as many of these procedures as it can afford. This paper describes the Oregon health plan model and its current state of implementation, then explores some of the plan's advantages and drawbacks. The paper then discusses elements of the plan which may be usefully examined in Canada.

Book Oregon s Measure 11 Sentencing Reform

Download or read book Oregon s Measure 11 Sentencing Reform written by Nancy Merritt and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2004 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1994, Oregon voters passed Measure 11, a measure that imposed long mandatory prison terms for 16 designated violent and sex-related offenses, prohibited "earned time," and provided for mandatory waiver of youthful offenders to adult court. This measure stood in sharp contrast to sentencing practices at the time, overlaying the state's existing sentencing guidelines system for selected offenses, increasing the length of prison terms imposed, and reducing judicial discretion at the sentencing phase. Proponents of the measure felt that it would improve public safety by both deterring future criminal behavior and increasing the length of time that serious felons spend in prison. Opponents, on the other hand, believed that the measure would adversely affect criminal justice system operations and reduce system integrity. In 1998, the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission (OCJC) received funding from the National Institute of Justice to study the implementation and outcomes of Measure 11 across the state as a whole, and within three counties: Multnomah, Lane, and Marion. This study, conducted by RAND under subcontract to the OCJC, draws upon a number of state level databases and interviews with state and county stake-holders to answer key questions about how the measure was developed, its relationship to the existing sentencing practices in the state, impacts on the types of sentences imposed, admissions to prison, and sentence lengths imposed, as well as how sentencing practices changed for both adults and youths. Our original proposal included an analysis of prosecutorial decisions. Though extensive efforts were made to obtain county prosecutor data during the study time frame, these data were not available. Further, preliminary analyses showed the statewide Oregon Judicial Information Network (OJIN) data to be unsuitable for this type of analysis.

Book Health Reform Policy to Practice

Download or read book Health Reform Policy to Practice written by Ronald Stock and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2017-08-21 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health Reform Policy to Practice: Oregon as a Case Study for a Path to a Comprehensive and Sustainable Health Delivery Model offers a real world example of an innovative, successful and comprehensive program conducted by the U.S. State of Oregon. In 1991, Oregon embarked on a journey to improve health for all its citizens by radically re-thinking how to approach health care for long-term benefits. Over more than two decades, Oregonians have participated in a dialogue to create a new approach to solve the dilemma of providing high quality health care that is affordable and effective. Traditionally, health care reform looked at cutting people from care, cutting provider rates or cutting services. Oregon's approach is unique in that it built a new system of delivery from the ground (community) up. The Oregon model took a "Fourth Path” to health care by redesigning the clinical delivery system through reducing waste, improving individual health and prevention, and therefore reducing utilization of services, creating local accountability, aligning financial incentives and creating fiscal accountability. This is not only an Oregon story, but a national one as other states, payers and purchasers implement health care reform. Written by content experts who have been actively involved in health care reform efforts Provides clear translation of current information and experience to implementation Explores the potential impact of the Oregon experience on national and international health care reform efforts

Book The Price of Citizenship

Download or read book The Price of Citizenship written by Michael B. Katz and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2002-03 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katz shows how these changes are propelling America toward a future of increased inequality and decreased security as individuals compete for success in an open market with ever fewer protections against misfortune, power, and greed. And he shows how these trends are transforming citizenship from a right of birth into a privilege available only to the fully employed."--Jacket.
