Health Systems

This page contains resources and guidance for Oregon TPEP and Healthy Communities county and tribal grantees working with CCOs, other health systems, and their county or tribal clinical services to pursue policy, systems, and environment changes. Public health and health systems partners can work together to improve the quality and delivery of preventative services, and help people more effectively use and benefit from those services. In addition, CCOs and health systems can be important partners in other community health improvement efforts. Refer to the TPEP RFA and Healthy Communities RFP for suggested strategies and activities.
