Oregon program FAQs

Practical answers for facility teams.

Who pays the third-party survey vendor?

The facility contracts with and pays the third-party survey vendor used to administer the annual resident and family satisfaction surveys.

Who enters CoreQ results into the Oregon application?

The facility enters its average CoreQ item scores into the state application. Survey vendors do not have access to the facility’s application.

How may the resident survey be administered?

Facilities may use an approved third-party process such as mail, phone or another supported method and should accurately identify the survey source in the Metric 5 reporting fields.

May a family member answer for a resident?

No. A family member should not complete the resident survey as the resident’s proxy. Family feedback is collected through the applicable family survey.

What if a resident cannot complete the survey because of cognitive status?

Document the survey population and response count according to program guidance. That context is important even when an individual resident cannot provide a valid response.

What happens when there are fewer than 10 responses?

Results with fewer than 10 responses are not individually reported, but the responses may still contribute to regional or statewide results as allowed by the program.

Can residents who left before year-end be included?

Yes. The survey is a snapshot of experience during the applicable period, so eligible former residents may be included under the program’s timing and eligibility guidance.

What is required for endorsed memory-care facilities?

For 2025 and later reporting, an endorsed memory-care facility administers the family survey to the resident’s primary representative and should ask the representative to respond only when they have visited recently enough to answer meaningfully.
