Reference Price Program
The Oregon Educators Benefit Board (OEBB), in an effort to help its members receive quality care at an affordable price, has established a reference price program. This program currently includes Bariatric Surgery (effective 10/1/13), and most recently Major Joint Replacement Surgery (DRG 470) and Oral Appliances (HCPC E0485 & E0486) (effective 10/1/14). As of March 1, 2015, the reference price program for Major Joint Replacement Surgery only applies to statewide (Connexus Network) members.
- In a reference price program, the plan sponsor limits their contributions toward the cost of a specific health care service, and health plan members must pay the difference in price if a more costly health care provider or service is selected.
- This reference price program means OEBB members in need of a joint replacement or an oral appliance for sleep apnea will be encouraged to seek this care from specific facilities located throughout the State.
- Using any other facility could result in the member being held responsible for a substantial share of the cost.
- Travel benefits are available to OEBB members that use a participating reference price facility. The Plan will reimburse up to $2,600 for eligible travel expenses. Please see the Member Handbook for additional details.
We are confident that this program for OEBB members will not only be cost effective, but it will also improve the overall quality of care.
