The Oregon Hospital Political Action Committee (OHPAC) is the political voice for Oregon hospitals and health systems. OHPAC works to elect officials and help candidates understand the importance of strong community hospitals and health systems in Oregon.

OHPAC was founded in 1982 as a non-profit, non-partisan, voluntary membership-based organization that supports political candidates and elected officials who understand the importance of maintaining strong, community-based hospitals in Oregon.

OHPAC seeks to create a shared recognition in Salem and Washington, D.C. of the dual roles played by Oregon hospitals as community health advocates and as essential employers within those communities. OHPAC members provide grassroots and financial support to legislative candidates and office holders who demonstrate a commitment to Oregon’s community hospitals.
