Community Advisory Council
The Cascade Health Alliance Community Advisory Council (CAC) is an important part of our service to the community and our members. The CAC helps us stay connected with you. The CAC helps us plan ways to support our members to be healthy and happy. CAC members set goals that work towards providing better health care for our members.
Some of the responsibilities of the CAC are:
- Make sure the health care needs of members are met
- Identify and promote preventative care practices
- Oversee Community Health Assessments
- Read the 2018 Community Health Assessment
- Adopt a Community Health Improvement Plan
In the planning process, CAC members review the Community Health Assessment and team up with representatives from Sky Lakes Medical Center, Klamath County Public Health and Klamath Health Partnership to develop a Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). The CHIP serves as the five-year strategic plan for improving the health and well-being of Klamath County Residents.
Cascade Health Alliance is committed to our community and our members. Being a part of the Community Advisory Council requires the same commitment. CAC meetings are open to the public and occur on the third Wednesday of every month. For community members wishing to attend who are in need of language or disability accommodations or transportation, let CHA know 48 hours before the event at: 541-883-2947 or info@cascadecomp.com.
The meetings are the third Wednesday of every month. CAC meetings are hybrid (in-person and online). If you want to attend a CAC meeting, call member services for more information at 541-883-2947.
Being part of the CAC is a great way to make a difference in your community. If you are interested in joining the CAC, please contact Patricia Pahl at 541.883.2947 or patriciap@cascadecomp.com.
The CAC is made up of:
- Members, or caretakers of members, served by CHA and Oregon Health Plan

- Representatives from Klamath County government
