To: All Stakeholders From: HFEMSD The Department is beginning the stakeholder process this September for the 6 CCR 1011-1 Chapter 4, Hospitals rule revision pertaining to House Bill 22-1401. This new law was passed in Colorado’s latest legislative session and seeks to ensure hospitals are prepared for a public health emergency or staffing shortage through the implementation of a robust nurse staffing committee and plan, comprehensive emergency management, and reporting on staffed-bed capacity data to the Department. This new law required the Board of Health to promulgate rules by September 1, 2022, therefore emergency rules were adopted by the Board of Health and became effective on August 17, 2022 and will remain in effect for 120 days. The stakeholder engagement process will allow all stakeholders to provide meaningful input on the emergency rules. Meetings are open to the public. This meeting will be held remotely via Zoom only.
