How to Become a CCare Provider
The OregonContraceptiveCare Program (CCare) is a Medicaid waiver demonstration project approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The project provides contraceptive management services to eligible men and women with family incomes up to 250% of the Federal Poverty Level through a contract network of qualified family planning clinic providers. Contraceptive management services are specific to initiating or obtaining a contraceptive method and maintaining effective use of that method.
To become a CCare provider, you must also offer these same services to Oregon Health Plan (OHP) clients and be enrolled as a provider with both CCare and OHP.
You can find out more about CCare on the CCare website and more about being a provider on our provider resources website.
You can read about OHP rules and information on the Department of Medical Assistance Program’s website.
