After statewide tour, health authority director plans to improve Oregon's health care system
Briefly

In her recent report, Oregon Health Authority Director Sejal Hathi emphasized the need for systemic change in health care, noting, 'Our focus is on making health care more accessible, particularly in rural areas, and addressing the needs of our most vulnerable populations, like the homeless and children affected by lead poisoning.'
Hathi's goals include reducing bureaucratic obstacles in mental health and addiction treatment. She stated, 'By streamlining processes for providers, we can enhance service delivery and ultimately improve health outcomes for the people we serve.'
A significant part of Hathi's vision includes empowering local public health agencies, with her report stressing, 'It’s critical that these agencies are equipped with sufficient personnel to effectively manage testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections among our communities.'
