Public Hearing for OAR Chapter 325: Patient Safety Reporting Program (PSRP) Participation Agreement Update
Apr
16

Public Hearing for OAR Chapter 325: Patient Safety Reporting Program (PSRP) Participation Agreement Update

About the Hearing

On March 26, 2025, the Oregon Patient Safety Commission (OPSC) filed a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking with the Secretary of State’s office.  Access a PDF copy of this notice, which includes the proposed changes.

Caption: Expanding opportunities for healthcare facility participation in patient safety activities.

Statement of Need: OPSC's current participation agreement for the PSRP program creates a barrier to entry for eligible facilities and makes it difficult for OPSC to introduce new PSRP program offerings. Revisions of Chapter 325, Division 11 are needed to modernize the program and create more participation opportunities.

Rules Advisory Committee (RAC) Meeting: Proposed Changes to OPSC Participation Agreement
Mar
19

Rules Advisory Committee (RAC) Meeting: Proposed Changes to OPSC Participation Agreement

About This Meeting

The Oregon Patient Safety Commission (OPSC) is convening a Rules Advisory Committee, to review updates to Oregon Administrative Rules Chapter 325, Division 11 for the Patient Safety Reporting Program. Administrative rules have the effect of law.

Rules Advisory Committees, and other forms of engagement with people and communities, provide OPSC the opportunity to get input from affected communities throughout the rulemaking process. This Committee will meet once in March, and the public is invited to listen to the meeting.


Meeting Agenda

  • Rules Advisory Committee member introductions

  • OPSC’s mission and role

  • Goals for drafting proposed rules

  • Line-by-line review of proposed rules

  • Discussion of any potential fiscal or economic impact

Conference ID: 307 828 654#


Background

In the 2023 Legislative session, SB229 passed and was signed into law by Governor Kotek. These changes created more flexibility within the Patient Safety Reporting Program (PSRP) to make use of modern patient safety practices. OPSC’s current administrative rules have not fully integrated these changes in law, in particular as it relates to OPSC’s PSRP Participation Agreement. OPSC’s current administrative rules create a barrier to participation in short-term initiatives for eligible healthcare facilities. OPSC is seeking to revise our administrative rules, with feedback from a Rules Advisory Committee, to more fully achieve the intent of SB229.

Our Commitment to Equity

The mission of OPSC is to improve the safety of Oregon’s healthcare system for every Oregonian, making equity integral to everything we do. Therefore, we are committed to developing rules that foster diversity, equity, and inclusion.
