Oregon Health Consensus v0.1

From OHC

Vision: Health for Oregonians

Desired Outcome

A fully representative Oregon Health Consensus that leads to measurable improvement in Oregonians' health, and of their understanding of the health-related resources available to them.

Mission: The Oregon Health Consensus

We are committed to creating a statement that clearly articulates what all Oregonians want for their health and the health of their communities. We call this statement The Oregon Health Consensus. We will also research and document existing health care resources, and past and present efforts to reform health-related policy.

The Oregon Health Consensus will lead directly to legislation, health care policy, public initiatives, and programs that are aligned with our intentions for our health and the health of our communities.

Strategy

Create and moderate a web site where every citizen can productively contribute to The Oregon Health Consensus whether they have 5 minutes or 5 hours a week.

The web site will build The Oregon Health Consensus document in stages. Each successive stage will build upon the preceding stage, increasing the number of participants and the scope of the document we are agreeing upon. Each stage will conclude once 90% of all participants are satisfied with the current state of the document.

Documentation of past and present health-related issues will inform us in developing reform proposals, and will serve as a resource for all Oregonians as they make individual and/or collective decisions about their health.

Next

At least 90% of 40 Oregonians agree on the Vision and Demographic Minimums sections of The Oregon Health Consensus.
