About me
Dr. Dawn Mautner, MD, MS is a family physician who serves as OHA Medicaid Medical Director, where she provides clinical direction, supports evidence-based, member-centered policy, and works to center health equity across workstreams. She graduated from Penn State College of Medicine and completed her residency with chief year at Harbor-UCLA in Los Angeles. She completed a Health Policy and Research fellowship in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Clinical Scholars Program at the University of Pennsylvania, during which time she researched how patients with frequent hospitalizations and emergency visits fall through the cracks of our fragmented systems. Her health justice outlook is informed by her experiences. These include growing up on a ranch in Idaho, Peace Corps service in El Salvador, and faculty experience and leadership in academia and primary care as the medical director of Multnomah County’s refugee clinic and as a provider at Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Center. Her hometown since high school is Newberg, Oregon. She loves time with her family, the outdoors, volleyball, yoga, and cooking.
