Employee pay and benefits

CareOregon offers a strong employment package, including a variety of pay and benefits described below, as well as an important mission, great people, and a warm and collaborative work environment where contributions are recognized.

Employee pay

Base pay

CareOregon strives to provide competitive base pay for all positions. The pay ranges listed in job postings are reasonable estimates that extend from the lowest to the highest pay we in good faith believe we will pay for a job, based on the circumstances at the time of posting. CareOregon may ultimately pay more or less than the posted range as permitted by law.

Bonuses and other pay

In addition to base pay, CareOregon employees are eligible for bonuses. Some positions are also eligible for additional compensation, such as bilingual pay, lead pay or on-call pay.

Employee benefits

CareOregon offers eligible employees a comprehensive package that includes the following benefits.

Medical coverage
