MAP ID application form

CareOregon is a managed care plan contracted with the Oregon Health Authority (OHA). As a contracted plan, CareOregon is required to encounter all claims received to OHA. In order to encounter a claim, the rendering and billing providers must first be verified as eligible to receive payment by OHA and issued an ID number. This ID number is for the purposes of claim processing solely and does not imply you are contracting with CareOregon or OHA. By completing the application in its entirety, you are meeting minimum conditions for claim processing.
