Grant Overview

Colorado's Innovative Telehealth Protocols Pilot aims to improve healthcare interactions for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) through the development of user-friendly telehealth interfaces and supportive resources. The state's mountainous terrain and rural regions create unique challenges for healthcare access, with many individuals facing significant barriers to in-person care. According to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, telehealth has the potential to bridge this gap, but current protocols often fail to meet the needs of adults with I/DD. This funding opportunity will support the development of innovative telehealth protocols, provider training, and patient feedback systems, with a focus on measurable improvements in health interactions. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations and advocacy groups with experience serving adults with I/DD in Colorado. Unlike neighboring states, Colorado's emphasis on telehealth requires a deep understanding of the state's rural landscape and the specific needs of its I/DD population. Colorado's Economy and Healthcare Workforce: The state's strong economy, driven by industries such as technology and healthcare, supports a diverse workforce, but also creates challenges in terms of workforce distribution. Many healthcare providers are concentrated in urban areas, such as Denver and Boulder, leaving rural regions underserved. Colorado's Telehealth Landscape: The state's investment in broadband infrastructure has improved telehealth access, but significant gaps remain, particularly in rural areas. This funding opportunity will prioritize the development of telehealth protocols that address these gaps and improve health outcomes for adults with I/DD. Improving Health Interactions in Colorado: By supporting the development of innovative telehealth protocols, this initiative aims to increase engagement and satisfaction with telehealth services among adults with I/DD. Measurable outcomes will be tracked through patient feedback systems and provider reporting. Colorado's I/DD Population: The state's I/DD population is diverse, with a range of needs and preferences. This funding opportunity will prioritize the development of telehealth protocols that are tailored to these needs, with a focus on user-friendly interfaces and supportive resources.
