Quarterly filing detail
Every quarter, insurers authorized for health in Oregon, third-party administrators(TPAs)
licensed under ORS 744.702, and certain Oregon public entities must report Oregon
lives covered under specific types of insurance or self-insured medical plans.
Reporting is required regardless of where the policy was issued or the
premium written. Companies exempt from reporting must file an online exemption
once each calendar year.
Quarterly health enrollment data is available on the Division of Financial Regulation website.
Enrollment is submitted through iReg via pipe (|) delimited .dat files. There
are no forms to complete.
Contact validation
Companies and special districts must provide key contact information before
filing enrollment or exemptions.
Adding comments
The division requests comments when:
- Enrollment changes by a minimum of +/- 1,000 members or +/- 10 percent
from one quarter to another, and
- Exemptions are requested and "No lives to report" and "Other" are
selected.
- An insurer or TPA provides benefits or services to Oregon special districts,
such as cities, counties, or school districts.
- A TPA performs some, but not all, administrative functions on behalf of
self-insured medical plans.
- Oregon public entity lives are reported under categories 5.b and 6 shown
under the self-insured category and subcategories.
Provide brief explanations for the enrollment change, the request for exemption,
general administrative services provided when services are split - such as claims
payment only. Insurers provide the number of self-insured Oregon
public entity lives for which administrative services and stop loss insurance
are provided.
Other comments may also be added. Comments must be added before uploading files
or saving exemptions and are not publicly available.

Note: No written premium and do not
write in Oregon are not valid exemptions. Oregon lives are reported regardless
