Overview: Oregon Public Meetings & State Government Ethics for Public Officials
– Brief overview of Oregon Public Meetings Law – State Government Ethics for Oregon Public Officials – Information in these slides summarized from State of Oregon Overview of Boards, Commissions, & Small Entities (materials and references provided for further information)
Oregon Public Meetings Law
Oregon’s Public Meetings Law serves two purposes: 1.To provide a means by which the public can be informed about the deliberations and decisions of state government; 2.To ensure governing bodies in Oregon have an open decision-making process The Public Meetings Law applies to state and local government “governing bodies” of “public bodies”
Oregon Public Meetings Law
“Public body” includes the state, cities, counties, districts, boards, commissions, committees, subcommittees, advisory groups, and similar bodies. “Governing body” means the members of any public body consisting of two or more members (i.e., a board, commission, committee, subcommittee or council) with authority:
administration

Oregon Public Meetings Law
The Metrics & Scoring Committee is a public body and its meetings are subject to Public Meetings Law. A public meeting includes any deliberations that involve a quorum of Committee members. For M&S a quorum is 5 of the 9 members. Examples of activities that fall under Public Meetings Law include:
Likewise, any subcommittee or workgroup chartered by M&S is subject to Public Meetings Law.
Oregon Public Meetings Law
Four basic requirements for conducting a public meeting
meetings, location, and main subjects
For specific limited purposes public bodies can meet in executive session to have confidential discussions. Executive sessions are closed to the public. Members of the media may attend but cannot report what was discussed. No decisions can be made in executive session.
Oregon Public Officials
There are approximately 200,000 public officials in Oregon:
a state, county, city government, or special district

State Government Ethics for Public Officials
Public officials are personally responsible for complying with the provisions in state ethics law. Public officials must make a personal judgment in deciding such matters as
State Government Ethics for Public Officials
Use of Position
Ethics law prohibits using or attempting to use the position you hold as a public official to obtain a financial benefit, if the
available but for the position you hold. Financial benefit can be either an opportunity for gain or to avoid an expense.

– Only group-based commercial programs had persistent benefit – Conclusion: There is no evidence that interventions delivered within primary care settings by generalist primary care teams trained in weight management achieve meaningful weight loss.

Obesity Metric Components and Optimization
The current proposed obesity metric includes

–PCP documentation about obesity counseling

Path Forward: Proposal (1/3)
an evidence-based measure.
1. Propose the current child obesity metric (NQF 0024) to get BMI reporting up to standard.
– Is evidence that this measure contributed to increased rates of BMI percentile assessments (33.7 percentage points), counseling for physical activity (18.6 percentage points), and counseling for nutrition (21.0 percentage points) among youth ages 3-17 year enrolled in Medicaid over the period 2009- 20141. – While these actions in and of themselves are shown to be ineffective in addressing obesity in children (per HERC evidence review), these clinical assessments (particularly BMI assessment) are a first step in identifying children in need of
– The measure could ensure that reporting systems are in place for an evidence-based measure.

– Medicaid only for CCO measure – All payers for NQF0028/ CMS138
– Separate reporting of these rates in CCO measure – No separate reporting of smoking in NQF0028/ CMS138

– Is the rationale for each measure accurate? Changes needed? – Is recommendation the 2018 measure set + all, or subset of “on deck” measures? – Approach for ‘on deck’ measures – comprehensive or targeted, intentional recommendation? – Others?
