Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Housing Benefits

Helping Members Keep and Stay in their Homes

Housing benefits are a health-related social needs (HRSN) service. HRSN housing benefits are for OHP members with certain health conditions.

What Are HRSN Housing Benefits?

  • Help paying rent for up to six months. This includes late payments. 
  • Help paying for utilities like gas, electric and water. This includes set-up and late payments.
  • Up to six months of storage fees.
  • Tenancy support – help understanding your lease, speaking with your landlord and referrals to other services.
  • Home changes for health and safety, including pest control, heavy duty cleaning, and installation of ramps, grab bars, and drawer pulls.

Who Qualifies for HRSN Housing Benefits?

Each housing benefit has different requirements. They may include things like your income, your age or having a lease. But for all of them you must be an OHP member to qualify for HRSN housing benefits.
