Is Oregon’s healthcare system helping people, or just burning cash?
In this episode of Oregon D.O.G.E., we dive into the Oregon Health Authority’s surging $39B budget, bureaucratic bloat, and scandals involving misused mental health grants, stalled patient care, and lawsuits from counties.
Topics include:
- A $1B program for undocumented care
- OHA’s 256-person, $55M Equity Division
- Patients are being asked for $4K upfront despite having insurance
- Why Oregon ranks last in hospital beds per capita
- Nurses paid top-3 nationwide—but staffing remains blocked
- State and county lawsuits over addiction funding
With guests Senator Suzanne Weber and Rep. Ed Diehl, this episode is a wake-up call about transparency, priorities, and the future of healthcare in Oregon.
