Language interpreter services

If you need an interpreter for visits or phone calls to your (or your child’s) provider’s office, you are legally entitled to this service free of charge. When you join Columbia Pacific, you may receive a Preferred Language card. This card helps you tell your provider’s office about your spoken language. The card shows the preferred language you chose on your insurance application. Show this to your provider to receive interpretation.

For phone interpretation, call our Customer Service when you’re at the doctor, dentist or pharmacist or making an appointment.
Call Customer Service if you ask for an interpreter but don’t get one. It’s important for us to know so we can follow up and improve the process.
Member forms
Below is a list of some of the most frequently used forms. Click on a link to open the form in PDF format.
Your Member ID card
When you become a Columbia Pacific member, we’ll mail you a Member ID card within 30 days. Your Member ID card lists your primary care provider (PCP). It also lists important contact information. The card looks like this:

Take your Member ID card and your Oregon Health ID card to all health care and dental appointments and to the pharmacy when you fill a prescription.

Reasons to take your card with you:
- It’s easier to check in for appointments.
- It’s easier to get medicine at a pharmacy.
- Your provider will know who to bill.
- Providers use information on Member ID cards to make sure you have benefits with us.
If you or a family member switch to a different PCP, we’ll send you a new Member ID card. If you lose your ID card, call Customer Service and we’ll send you a new one.
Are my prescriptions covered? View the drug list
Columbia Pacific pays for many prescription drugs. The ones we cover are on a drug list called a “formulary.” When your provider prescribes a medicine, ask if it’s on the covered drug list. The list is a directory of medications approved for Columbia Pacific CCO members. It explains if there are special rules about the drug. The list is updated often, so if we remove or change a medication that you take, you’ll be notified in advance. To download and view the drug list, click the link below.

Renewing and applying for Oregon Health Plan coverage
The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) sends you a coverage letter that has your:
- Benefit package
- Coordinated care plan name
This letter shows information for everyone in your household who has an Oregon Health Plan (OHP) ID card. You do not need to take this letter to your health care appointments or to pharmacies. OHA will send you a new coverage letter if you ask for one or if your coverage changes.

OHA sends you one OHP ID card that has your name, Member ID number and the date the card was issued. All eligible members in your household receive their own OHP ID cards.

Keep your OHP ID card in a safe place. OHA only sends a new card if you change your name or ask for a new card. If your OHP ID card is not correct, or you get a new card with your name but a different Member ID, call OHP Customer Service right away at 800-699-9075 (TTY 711).

To keep your Oregon Health Plan coverage, you must re-apply every 12 months. OHP will send you a letter about how to keep your coverage.
