OHCA Policies and Rules

317:10-1-1 Purpose

[Revised 09-12-22]

(a) The purpose of this Chapter is to describe the rules governing the contracting and purchasing requirements of the Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA), as directed by 74 O.S. ' 85.39. OHCA maintains two (2) internal units that are responsible for the acquisition of goods, equipment, non-professional services, and professional services for the operation of OHCA.

(b) The rules of this Chapter are superseded by the Office of Management and Enterprise Services (OMES) [Oklahoma Administrative Code (OAC) 260:115,] as amended from time to time, whenever OMES has final authority on an acquisition. When an acquisition is made by OMES, the OMES purchasing rules at OAC 260:115 apply. When an acquisition is made by OHCA, the rules of this Chapter should be read in conjunction with the OMES rules.
