Community Provider Rate Increase (Medicaid Targeted Rate Increase) – Request for Input

"The Colorado Department for Health Care Policy and Financing (Department) is seeking stakeholder input regarding potential targeted rate increases using funds that may be appropriated.  Approximately $19 million may be available for targeted rate increases in FY 2014-2015.

The ultimate decision on moving forward with the 0.5% increase is dependent upon Joint Budget Committee (JBC) approval.  Even if we do not receive JBC approval to move forward with this request, we do plan to use the information you submit to us to help inform future budget and policy requests.

Any rate increase(s) MUST be implemented no later than July 1, 2014.  Stakeholders are asked to submit their input on or before 5pm, Friday, January 31, 2014 to allow the Department sufficient time to implement the increase(s).  Click here to view the intended purpose of the rate increase and guidelines for submitting input, and click here to view the framework of the allocations.  Visit the website for more information and updates.  All email responses as well as questions are to be submitted to Medicaid2015@state.co.us."  [Source:  HCPF]
