Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is introducing two new nutrition benefits for eligible Oregon Health Plan (OHP) members: a fruit and vegetable benefit and a pantry stocking benefit. These supports will help people with serious health conditions access the healthy foods they need to help manage their conditions and avoid unnecessary emergency care.
OHP members can learn more about eligibility and request service from the OHA Nutrition Benefits page or contact their CCO directly.
What the nutrition benefits include
Starting July 1, 2026, eligible OHP members may receive up to six months of support through the following benefits:
- Fruit and vegetable benefit covering fresh, frozen, canned, or packaged options, including items like applesauce
- Pantry benefit covering foods such as meat, poultry, fish, dairy products, bread, cooking oils, and spices
Depending on their health plan, members may receive grocery box deliveries or a preloaded card they can use at participating stores.
