Universal Citation: OR Admin Rules 950-030-0000
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024

These rules establish uniform standards and practices for the collection of data on race, ethnicity, preferred spoken or signed and preferred written language, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity by the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) and others required by law or contract. Standardized data collection methodology will improve the ability of OHA, community partners, elected officials, and other decision makers to recognize, address, target and eliminate inequities experienced by distinct tribal, racial, cultural, and linguistic communities; people with disabilities; and LGBTQIA2S+ communities. These standards allow OHA to meet federal reporting expectations; compare Oregon's progress with national trends; improve quality service delivery; and ensure equitable allocation of resources.
