Summary
This policy establishes coordinated care organization (CCO) responsibilities for participating in temporary lodging prevention staffings for at-risk youth in Oregon's child welfare system. CCOs must assess member needs, coordinate care, and provide support services during placement crises to prevent youth from staying overnight in hotels with caseworkers.
Action Required
Care coordination staff should review this guidance and establish workflows for participating in temporary lodging prevention staffings when contacted by Oregon Department of Human Services Child Welfare. Ensure staff can quickly access member utilization history, medication information, and coordinate mental health services during crisis situations.
