Health Care Market Oversight

Through the Health Care Market Oversight (HCMO) program, the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) reviews proposed business deals to make sure they will help – and not hurt – Oregon's shared goals of health equity, lower consumer costs, increased access, and better care. The program applies to mergers, acquisitions, and other business deals that involve health care entities and meet certain criteria.

Oregon Revised Statute 415.500 et seq.
Oregon Administrative Rules 409-070-0000 through -0085 (effective 1/1/2023)
