Colorado Choice Transitions (CCT) Program Reference Manual

Return to Billing Manuals Web Page

Program Overview

Colorado Choice Transitions (CCT), part of the federal Money Follows the Person Rebalancing Demonstration, is a five-year grant program. The primary goal is facilitating the transition of Health First Colorado (Colorado's Medicaid Program) members from nursing and other long-term care (LTC) facilities to the community using home and community based (HCBS) services and supports. Services are intended to promote independence, improve the transition process, and support individuals in the community. Participants of the CCT program will have access to qualified waiver services as well as demonstration services. They will be enrolled in the program for up to 365 days after which time they will enroll into one of five HCBS waivers so long as they remain Medicaid eligible. Days in a hospital or LTC facility for a period of less than 30 days during the enrollment period will not count towards the 365 days. Qualified services are HCBS waiver services that will continue once the CCT program has ended if the member continues to be eligible for HCBS. Demonstration services are enhanced services provided during an individual's enrollment in the demonstration program post-transition and end on the last day of CCT enrollment. The grant funding will also be used to streamline and improve the HCBS systems in Colorado.

Health First Colorado members participating in CCT must meet long-term care Health First Colorado eligibility requirements (which include functional and financial eligibility), reside in a long-term care facility for a period of no less than ninety days (90) not counting days for rehabilitation, have been Medicaid eligible for one day, and be willing to move to qualified housing as defined in federal statute. To participate, members must meet financial, medical, and program criteria to access services through the CCT program and be willing to receive services in their homes or communities. A member who receives services through the CCT program is also eligible for all Health First Colorado State Plan services. When a member chooses to receive services under a waiver and the CCT program, the services must be provided by certified Health First Colorado providers.

The CCT program will complement the Elderly, Blind, and Disabled Waiver, Persons with Brain Injury Waiver, Community Mental Health Supports Waiver, Persons with Developmental Disabilities Wavier, and Supported Living Services Waiver. The populations that will be transitioned through the program include: elderly adults aged 65 years or older residing in Health First Colorado nursing facilities, adults aged 18-64 with physical disabilities residing in Health First Colorado nursing facilities, adults aged 18 and older with developmental disabilities residing in Intermediate Care Facilities (ICFs) and Health First Colorado nursing facilities, and adults 65 years and older and individuals under 22 residing in institutions for mental disease (IMDs).

Note: The Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (the Department) periodically modifies billing information. Therefore, the information in this manual is subject to change, and the manual is updated as new billing information is implemented.

Policy Guidance for Services

The Services and Supports Desk Reference offers essential information on CCT demonstration services to providers, members, and stakeholders. The information includes service definitions, minimum provider qualifications, service rates, and other pertinent information. The Department may periodically modify policy guidance.

Providers are notified of changes in policy guidance in the monthly HCBS Provider Bulletin and other Department communications.

Prior Authorization Requests (PARs) for CCT

All CCT services require prior approval before they can be reimbursed by the Health First Colorado. Case management agencies (CMA) complete the Prior Authorization Request for CCT according to instructions provided by the Department.

The case management agencies responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  1. Assessing needs,
  2. Determining CCT program eligibility,
  3. Service planning and authorization,
  4. Care coordination,
  5. Risk mitigation,
  6. Service monitoring,
  7. Monitoring the health, welfare and safety of the member,
  8. Promotion of member's self-advocacy, and
  9. Coordination of the member's transition from the CCT program to one of the existing HCBS waivers at the end of the member's participation on the CCT program, as long as the member remains eligible.

PAR Submission

All CCT PAR forms are filed via the "Bridge" which directly interfaces with the Colorado interChange System. Access to the Bridge is accomplished via the Medicaid Enterprise User Provisioning System (MEUPS).

Consumer Directed Attendant Support Services (CDASS)

For members authorized to receive CDASS, case managers will need to enter the data into the web portal maintained by Financial Management Service Provider (FMS) in addition to sending a PAR to the Department.

Case managers may also use the PAR form maintained by FMS to create the entire PAR for a member receiving CDASS as a part of the CCT program. In addition, case managers will need to fax the final PAR approval letter to FMS before attendant timesheets will be paid.
