CO Selected for Medicare Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative!

Dear CIVHC stakeholders,
Colorado received exciting news last week that our state was selected as one of just seven markets nationwide to participate in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative (CPCI). This landmark, four-year, multi-payer project aims to strengthen the primary care system while improving health care outcomes and controlling costs through a patient-centered medical home (PCMH) approach.

Special thanks to HealthTeamWorks and Colorado Association of Health Plans who partnered with CIVHC to engage seven payers in this effort to enhance and expand current PCMH work occurring across the state.
