The Colorado Medical Home Initiative began in 2001 in response to the Title V / Maternal and Child Health (MCH) national outcome measure, all children will receive comprehensive coordinated care within a Medical Home. The Colorado Initiative is a systems-building effort to promote quality health care for all children in Colorado. Bringing together a group of more than 40 people representing various agencies, families, hospitals, organizations and policy-makers, the Colorado Medical Home Initiative is dedicated to building a sustainable system that delivers quality health care for all children. Positioned within the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment as the lead agency, the Colorado Medical Home Initiative is a neutral facilitator in identifying barriers while promoting solutions in developing a quality-based system of health care for children.
