CCO Capitation Payments

Oregon pays 15 Coordinated Care Organizations $26.5 billion this biennium to manage healthcare for ~1.2 million OHP members — one in three Oregonians. About 200K OHP enrollees remain in Fee-for-Service Medicaid (dual-eligibles, Healthier Oregon, open card). CCOs receive a fixed per-member-per-month rate covering medical, dental, behavioral health, and pharmacy. This page shows where that money goes, which CCOs get the most, and how rates vary across the state.

Enrollment vs. PMPM Rate

Larger CCOs tend to have moderate rates. Smaller rural CCOs command premium rates due to access costs.

Total Biennial Capitation by CCO

Estimated total payments (medical + dental + pharmacy + supplemental), 2025-27 biennium.

Medical Capitation Rate (PMPM)

Per-member-per-month rate, CY2025. Weighted average: $538. Range: $488-$614 (26% spread).

OHP Enrollment by CCO

~1.2M OHP members enrolled in CCOs (of 1.4M total OHP). ~200K remain in Fee-for-Service. Health Share alone serves ~36% of CCO enrollees.

Key Findings

Health Share dominates. A single CCO — Health Share of Oregon — manages 37% of all OHP members and receives $10B of the $26.5B total. The tri-county Portland metro area (Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas) concentrates more Medicaid spending than the other 14 CCOs combined.
Rural CCOs cost more per member. Cascade Health Alliance (Klamath County) has the highest PMPM at $614 — 26% above the $488 rate for PacificSource Columbia Gorge. Rural areas face higher provider costs, travel distances, and narrower networks. Eastern Oregon CCO covers 12 counties with just 65,000 members across an area larger than many states.
Margins are razor-thin. CCO profitability averaged just 0.02% through June 2025. Several CCOs operated at a loss. The 3.4% rate increase for CY2025 was designed to stabilize the system, but rising pharmacy costs and behavioral health demand continue to pressure margins.
Three counties have dual CCOs. Lane County (Trillium + PacificSource Lane), Jackson County (Jackson Care Connect + AllCare), and Curry County (Advanced Health + AllCare) offer members a choice of CCO. This creates market dynamics where CCOs compete on network adequacy and member experience.
PacificSource is the quiet giant. While Health Share is the largest single CCO, PacificSource operates four separate CCOs (Central Oregon, Marion/Polk, Lane, and Columbia Gorge) serving a combined 226,000 members with $4.7B in total payments. As a system, PacificSource rivals Health Share's influence.

How CCO Rates Are Set

OHA sets each CCO's capitation rate through an actuarial process that accounts for:

  • Historical claims experience — what care actually cost for that CCO's population in prior years
  • Acuity mix — age, disability status, and chronic conditions of the enrolled population
  • Geographic cost factors — provider reimbursement levels, network adequacy, and rural access costs
  • Trend factors — projected medical cost inflation, new drug launches, utilization changes
  • Quality incentive pool — a portion withheld and earned back based on OHA quality metrics performance

The CY2025 rate increase of 3.4% was a compromise — CCOs requested 5%+ citing pharmacy cost growth and post-COVID utilization rebound, while OHA balanced fiscal constraints. The result: medical PMPM ranges from $488 (PacificSource Gorge) to $614 (Cascade), reflecting genuine cost variation across Oregon's diverse geography.

Sources & Methodology

Enrollment figures and biennial payment estimates are derived from publicly available OHA rate-setting presentations, CCO financial reports, and LFO budget documents. Medical PMPM reflects the base medical capitation rate; total payments per CCO include dental, pharmacy, behavioral health, quality pools, and supplemental payments. Individual CCO biennial totals are estimates — official figures are published in OHA's Medicaid Management Information System.
