Health-related services

Jackson Care Connect wants to make sure your unique health needs are addressed, so you are as healthy as possible. That’s why your benefits include access to a fund for what the Oregon Health Plan (OHP) calls “health-related services.”

This fund covers items or services that will help keep you healthy, and that you might not expect would be paid for by your health plan.

Health-related services funds help you get and stay healthy.

Here are some examples:

• Phone/video appointments: A cell phone, tablet, an internet connection for better access to providers, etc.
• Food support: Meal delivery, food vouchers, farmers market funds, etc.
• Housing support: Furniture, application fees for housing or a state-issued ID, moving costs, etc.
• Living environment: Air conditioners, athletic shoes, items that improve mobility, etc.
• Comfort items: Weighted blankets, sleep aids, vouchers for yoga classes, etc.

These funds are meant to fill needs until a permanent plan is in place.
