OHCA board approves 3% provider rate cut

The Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA) board approved a three percent across-the-board provider rate reduction. This is due in large part to a decline in federal matching dollars for a second consecutive year to a level not seen since the mid-1980’s, and a conservative estimate of 1 percent growth to cover increased enrollment, utilization and medical inflation. The reduction will be effective January 1, 2016.
