(Portland, OR) -- Oregon has the highest rate of Medicaid renewals in the country. After the pandemic, everyone on Medicaid had to renew their coverage. More than 90 percent of the state's nearly one-and-a-half million recipients have gone through the process. More than one out of five people were able to keep the Oregon Health Plan or other Medicaid benefits. Oregon made a bridge program available that increased income limits. Renewals were scheduled for people who were more likely to keep their benefits. And Oregon gave people more time to respond than any other state.
