Summary
Oregon clarifies that CCOs can use various agreement types (contracts, MOUs, or grants) with SDOH-E Partners for SHARE Initiative funds, not just subcontracts. Non-subcontract agreements have relaxed requirements and are exempt from certain reporting obligations.
Action Required
Oregon CCO providers only: Review existing SDOH-E Partner agreements to determine if they can be restructured as MOUs or grants instead of subcontracts to reduce administrative burden. Ensure any non-subcontract agreements include the seven minimum requirements outlined in the policy (contract term, budget, legal names, SDOH-E domains, fund distribution, scope of work, outcome measurement, and data collection obligations).
