ORH’s Community Conversations
Community Conversations is an ongoing, bimonthly virtual event to bring together rural community members and partners to discuss pressing rural health topics. These events are intended to share information and more importantly, learn from YOU about the needs in your rural communities.
ORH Biweekly Policy Updates
Policy is changing quickly with a new presidential administration in office and with Oregon in its long legislative session. ORH will host twice monthly meetings starting Feb. 21 through June 6 to share state and federal policy changes and to answer your questions about the impact of these changes on your work, organizations and rural communities.
These meetings, hosted by ORH director Robert Duehmig, will cover state legislative updates (timelines, status of bills and news), federal updates (the latest out of D.C. and the impact on rural health, budget and program updates and more) and will feature a guest speaker to provide federal and/or state perspectives.
Rural Health Clinic Workshop
The ORH provides Rural Health Clinic (RHC)-specific programming at the annual Oregon Rural Health Conference. Past topics have included RHC Compliance, data, billing and reporting, among others.
