Dear
provider,
Beginning
in September CDHPE's back end systems experienced difficulty in creating
renewal application documents and notices for some facility types. While some
errors resolved themselves there have been continuous issues for the following
provider types:
Nursing
Care Facilities
Home
Care Agencies
Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with
Intellectual Disabilities
Convalescent Centers
This
impacted facilities with license expiration dates starting in late December
2017 and continuing from that date.
CDPHE staff is beginning the process of manually creating
license renewal documentation for these facilities. Once this process is
complete over the next week your application will become available. Going
forward staff will continue to monitor expiring licenses and manually create
renewal documents as needed in the traditional 90-120 day window prior to the
expiration date.
Please
note that in some cases you may see previously submitted applications from
prior years in your Portal account. Once your 2017-2018 or 2018-2019 renewal
application is created the application ID will be a number over 30000. Numbers
below this are from prior year applications that should not be used. We cannot
accept re-submitted applications from prior years so please wait until your new
application becomes available before attempting to complete and submit it.
Chapter
II specifies certain deadlines for submitting your license renewal application.
Penalties for failing to submit an application 60 or 30 days prior to its
expiration date will not be enforced. The department still expects that the
application and fees will be submitted prior to the license's expiration date.
If your facility feels that it will be unable to meet that deadline please
contact the department to discuss the issues involved.
If you
require any further assistance please contact the division at (303)
692-2836 or cdphe.healthfacilities@state.co.us
