Section 333-003-0125 - Impending Public Health Emergency: Activation of Registrants

(1) The Division may activate the Registry in the event of a declaration and direct registrants willing to provide emergency health care services to proceed to any place in Oregon where emergency health care services are required by reason of the emergency or crisis.

(2) The Division may also activate the Registry pursuant to the Emergency Management Assistance Compact and the Pacific Northwest Emergency Management Arrangement and direct registrants willing to provide emergency health care services to proceed to another state where emergency health care services are required by reason of the emergency or crisis in that state.

(3) The activation of the Registry may be used to support the state Emergency Coordination Center, the State Emergency Management Plan and to implement ESF 8 plans, protocols, and procedures to integrate registrants into the state and local emergency response.

(4) The Division shall notify registrants of activation by phone, electronic mail, or any other means of communications.

(5) The Division shall provide, at a minimum, the following to a registrant willing to be deployed:

(a) A mission order;

(b) A description of items needed during the deployment; and

(c) If applicable, items that will be provided to a registrant.

(6) A registrant willing to be deployed shall bring their registry identification card and a government issued photo identification card or document to the deployment site.

(7) A registrant may decline to be deployed at the time the registrant is notified of the activation. A registrant shall remain on the Registry whether or not the registrant agrees to be deployed unless the registrant notifies the Division in accordance with OAR 333-003-0118 that they want to be removed from the Registry.

(8) If a registrant deployed under these rules provides emergency health care services at a designated emergency health care center the registrant must provide those services in accordance with the emergency operations plan and credentialing plan adopted by the designated emergency health care center.

(9) In anticipation of a declaration of emergency or during a declared emergency the Division may register health care providers without complying with OAR 333-003-0115 and provide just-in-time orientation and training. Under this section the Division shall verify licensure status as quickly as possible and shall issue the health care provider a temporary identification card.

(10) The Division may reimburse, provide advances for, or directly pay for travel expenses for registrants.
