Garner
  • Follow-up diagnostic testing needed after abnormal cervical cancer screening results to fully evaluate for potential cancer will be covered at no cost share.
  • Redefines "covered doula" as one certified by, and registered with, OHA. Doulas that are not certified and registered with the OHA will not be covered in the 2027 plan year.
  • Some compounded medications may need to be filled at a Moda-designated compounding pharmacy to be covered. 

Kaiser Senior Advantage (KSA):

  • Prescriptions - Kaiser Permanente will cover up to a 100-day supply of eligible medications for members at retail and through mail order.
  • Kaiser Permanente will cover Non-emergent transportation when medically necessary, as determined by a clinical provider.
  • Medicare will have a $2,400 prescription (Part D) maximum out-of-pocket. Multnomah County's KSA plan has very low co-pays for prescription drugs, so it is highly unlikely that any retirees will be impacted by this change.

Moda Delta Dental Plan:

  • Coverage for additional cleaning while pregnant no longer needs to occur during the 3rd trimester. The additional cleaning can be performed any time during the pregnancy. 

Plans with no significant changes:

  • Kaiser Medical
  • Kaiser Dental
  • Willamette Dental
