CO HB1147

Requires the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing (HCPF) to establish risk criteria for surveying service agencies that oversee host homes, with the Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) prioritizing surveys of higher-risk agencies

Creates a statewide public database containing information about host homes and their associated service agencies, including provider contact information, location region, and current and past service agency contracts from the previous five years

Mandates host home providers submit quarterly updates to the database beginning July 1, 2026, with HCPF updating the database monthly starting August 1, 2026

Risk criteria for service agency surveys must account for operating history, past compliance records emphasizing health and safety deficiencies, complaints filed, and whether agencies contract with providers previously terminated for health, safety, or welfare concerns

Establishes a public complaint process allowing aggrieved parties or their legal representatives to file complaints against host homes electronically, with anti-retaliation protections and a tracking system for complaint status and records
