Supporting and advancing mobile health services across Oregon
The Oregon Mobile Integrated Healthcare Coalition is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and advancing Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH) initiatives throughout the state. As a coalition, we bring together healthcare providers, emergency services, and community stakeholders to improve access to quality care, reduce healthcare costs, and enhance patient outcomes. Our mission is to foster collaboration, share best practices, and advocate for policies that enable the growth of MIH in Oregon.
Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH), also commonly referred to as Community Paramedicine (CP), is a care delivery model that brings resources to patients in a home or community-based setting, frequently using specially trained EMTs, paramedics, nurses, Medical Assistants (MAs), and CHWs to support patients with chronic disease management, preventative care, and wraparound, health-related services. Though MIH is an emerging field, evidence supports its effectiveness both in Oregon and nationwide. Programs have been shown to reduce 911 call volume, emergency department utilization, and 30-day hospital readmissions, all while increasing cost savings for healthcare and EMS organizations and, importantly, bringing critical health services to people who otherwise may lack access.
