KEY IMPROVEMENTS MADE

Cohort 1 Practice Feedback Changes As A Result of Feedback
Reporting burden Streamlined set of Clinical Quality Measures
Difficulties implementing SIM at individual practice sites instead of across healthcare systems/multi-site organizations
All practices within a healthcare system/multi-site organization now encouraged to apply
Confusion regarding support from payers Inclusion of clarifying language with links to the payer MOU, addendum, and payment model summaries in RFA
$5,000 insufficient and practices relayed the $40,000 grant applications were difficult
Achievement-based payments of up to $6,500 per year available with $40,000 grant funds provided by The Colorado Health Foundation
Insufficient HIT support Inclusion of HIE support, more clearly defined information regarding broadband expansion
