Acumentra Health Signs Contract to Perform External Quality Review of Oregon's Medicaid Managed Care Program

Published in State and Local Health Law Weekly, April 5th, 2007

Acumentra Health announced it has signed a contract with the Oregon Department of Human Services, Division of Medical Assistance Programs (DMAP), to perform outside review of the medical and dental services provided to Oregon Health Plan (OHP) enrollees. Federal law requires an annual external quality review (EQR) of state programs such as OHP that deliver Medicaid services through managed care.

The EQR contract spans two years ending in March 2009. Acumentra Health previously served as DMAP's EQR contractor from 2003 through 2005 and has performed similar duties under contract with the OHP managed mental health care program since 2004.
