Applying for an Oregon State License

Nourish is currently offering full reimbursement of Oregon licensure expenses plus an additional $25 bonus!

Though not required, we highly recommend applying for Oregon licensure so that you can be credentialed with payers in Oregon specifically, which expands access to care and improves coverage for your future patients.

If you have had Oregon licensure in the past and would like to renew it, you will still be included in this initiative and fully reimbursed.

The application will ask for ...

1) Basic personal information: name, address, consent to share SSN etc.

2) A checklist of items to include: $110 (check or card, no cash) two forms of ID containing your legal name, one with a photograph, proof of CDR (i.e., pathway 3)

3) Checks can be made payable to "Oregon Health Licensing Office"

Mail in the physical application including $110 check (cash not accepted)

Oregon Health Licensing Office

Board of Licensed Dietitians

1430 Tandem Ave. NE

Suite 180

Salem, OR 97301-2192

Licensure processing times ~1-2 weeks (please follow up with the Oregon Health Licensing Office if it is taking longer than 3 weeks for your application to process)

1. Upload it to your Provider Portal when you gain access 2 weeks prior to your start date

2. Upload it to your CAQH upon approval (in the professional IDs section and the documents section)

After Oregon processes your license, you will receive a physical copy in the mail. Once you receive your license, you will need to upload a photo of it in both your provider portal and your CAQH (as outlined above). If you applied for the license you are eligible for reimbursement for the cost of license & a $25 bonus!
Closer to your start date, once you gain access to our HR platform, submit your reimbursement request (cost of licensure + $25 bonus) and include 2 screenshots (a screenshot of your license in the portal and a screenshot of your license in CAQH).

Once your license is added to the Provider Portal and CAQH, Nourish will be able to bill both BCBS Oregon (Regence) and United Healthcare Oregon, expanding access to care and improving coverage for your patients!

Please note: OR is a "green state" so you may see patients here even without an OR state license. A state license, however, is required in order to become in network with BCBS OR (Regence) and UHC OR, which will expand coverage to patients across the country!
