SUBJECT: Addendum to Memorandum of
Understanding with Child Health Advocates
Enclosed for Board review and approval is an addendum to the memorandum of understanding
between the Child Health Advocates and Weld County Department of Public Health and
Environment.
On December 5, 2001, the Weld County Board of Commissioners approved the above-mentioned
memorandum of understanding that allowed WCDPHE to continue to be a Satellite Eligibility
Determination Site for the Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+). This plan established by Colorado
Revised Statutes, Sections 26-19-101, provides for outpatient and inpatient medical services to
children under age nineteen in medically indigent families. As a Satellite Eligibility
Determination Site, WCDPHE staff assist clients in completing their applications for this
insurance plan, determine eligibility for applicants, and submit each application with all required
documentation to the Child Health Advocates. In exchange for these services, WCDPHE is paid
$10.00 for each completed application submitted and an additional $20.00 per application for
eligibility determination for each correctly determined application submitted.
On April 1, 2002, Policy Studies Inc. (PSI), a Colorado corporation with offices in Denver,
purchased Child Health Advocates' name and operations. Responsibility for managing The
Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+)program has been transferred by the Colorado Department of
Health Care Policy and Financing from Child Health Advocates to PSI. The purpose of this
addendum to the memorandum of understanding is to transfer Child Health Advocates'
relationship and responsibilities described in the MOU from Child Health Advocates to Policy
Studies Inc. The responsibilities of WCDPHE as an SED site will remain as described in the
MOU.
I recommend your approval of this addendum to the memorandum of understanding with Child
Health Advocates.
