The State of Oregon, Oregon Health Authority (OHA), requests Proposals from qualified
Proposers to participate in an OHA, Public Health Division learning collaborative to
develop Sustainable Relationships for Community Health (SRCH).

OHA will sponsor a series of institutes to develop sustainable relationships for community health (SRCH Institutes), consisting of facilitated discussions and technical assistance to engage cross‐sector leaders involved in health system transformation. The SRCH Institutes will focus on developing innovative new models of care for heart disease, diabetes and prediabetes. Institute participants will specifically address issues related to areas of quality improvement, including use of quality measures, electronic health records and health information technology, and traditional health workers in team‐based care. Institute participants will also increase the use of evidence-based Community Self-Management Programs (CSMPs) through health system referral and reimbursement.

Proposer must be a Lead Fiscal Agent for a consortium that, at a minimum, includes at least one local public health authority (LPHA), one Coordinated Care Organization (CCO), and one local CSMP Provider (if neither the LPHA nor CCO are a CSMP Provider) serving a shared population.

OHA will accept only one Proposal per consortium through the Lead Fiscal Agent that is
either a CCO or an LPHA and the Lead Fiscal Agent will be designated as the Recipient under the resultant Grant Agreement. Only LPHAs and CCOs are eligible to serve as a Lead Fiscal Agent for a consortium. Other local entities, including nonprofit organizations, are encouraged to participate in this opportunity by joining a consortium.
