Final Report of Colorado Senate Bill 05-173 Long-Term Care Advisory
Committee
In 2005, the Colorado General Assembly passed Senate Bill 05-173
creating the Long-Term Care Advisory Committee. The
Committees charge was to explore and recommend to the state
department public policy that will enable the states Medicaid
program to act strategically as a client advocate and be an
efficient and effective purchaser of services and service delivery.
The Committee organized its 18 recommendations into the following
four groupings:
-
Person-centered service continuum
-
Seamless care planning
-
Eligibility and financing options that ensure access and value
purchasing
-
Statewide leadership and accountability for LTC planning and
program development
The Committee views its recommendations as integral to meeting the
policy goals set forth in SB 05-173. They represent a coherent
package of program modifications and reforms that will achieve
both the short-term and longer-term policy and program objectives
specified in the legislation.
