Families USA Submits Comments on Colorado’s “Expanding the Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Continuum of Care” 1115 Medicaid Demonstration Extension Request

Families USA commented to strongly support multiple aspects of Colorado’s waiver extension request, including continuous eligibility for children zero to three years old, 12 months of continuous eligibility for individuals leaving incarceration, and housing and nutrition supports. Our comments focused specifically on the proposed reentry initiative and its potential to positively impact the health of over 31,000 incarcerated Coloradans.
