Latest from the CO Dept. of Health Care Policy & Financing (HCPF)


Colorado interChange: Week of February 15, 2018
As the Colorado interChange moves toward normal operations, we'll be broadening the focus of this newsletter to bring you hot topics and useful information on a larger variety of issues related to Health First Colorado (Colorado's Medicaid Program) and other initiatives from the Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (the Department). We'll continue to focus on issues we believe your members we be discussing and resources to share. 

Provide Buzz on the Colorado interChange:
  • FAQs for multiple service locations are now available on the Department's website. If you have questions about requirements for providers with multiple service locations or how to enroll and bill for service locations separately, check out the FAQs here.
Other Topics
  • If you haven't had the chance already, take a moment and meet our new executive director. Kim Bimestefer has an extensive background in health care and has been leading the Department since her appointment by Gov. John Hickenlooper in January.
  • The next iteration of the Accountable Care Collaborative (ACC) is scheduled to begin July 1, 2018. The goals of the next phase are to improve member health and reduce costs. In November 2017, the Department announced the awards for the seven Regional Accountable Entity (RAE) contracts. The Department has made available the proposals from each of the awarded entities on CO.gov/HCPF/ACCPhase2.

Quick guides and webinars can help with Provider Web Portal questions
 
Quick guides and webinars developed to support you in using the new Provider Web Portal and in getting questions answered are constantly being updated on the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Finance website. While these quick guides aren't a substitute for provider-specific questions that should be directed to the Provider Services Call Center (1-844-235-2387), they do provide help on a variety of key topic areas and as well as other areas on which providers have indicated they need addition information.
 
The Department is always interested in your feedback on other educational resources that could be added. You can provide your Regional Field Representative with ideas for additional educational materials as well as local training support topics.
