Governor Hickenlooper signed HB17-1343 into law on June 5, 2017 which allows Health First Colorado (Colorado's Medicaid program) members to select the agency providing their case management services for home and community based services (HCBS), separate from those providing direct, 'hands on' services for the member. HB 17-1343 was sponsored by State Representative Dave Young (D-Greeley) and Sen. Dominick Moreno (D-Commerce City) and supported by Disability Law Colorado and many other Colorado organizations that advocate for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. DLC's Executive Director, Mary Anne Harvey, was among the leadership group present at the bill signing on June 5.
