Training Reminders

The CCM system training is no longer available on the LMS. Please use the CCM System Training Google Drive to access all CCM training materials. This Google Drive includes CCM Job Aids/training materials folder and a demo recordings folder. Please provide any training materials feedback on our Google form.


The new “Program Card” Job Aid has been posted and shared in the Email Blast the week of Dec. 18. The changes related to the updates were also addressed in the CMA CCM meeting on Dec. 19. The Training team has scheduled two optional work sessions for the Super User work group to discuss this process and provide feedback on Dec. 27 and Jan. 4.


Case Managers will need to complete the Level of Care (Legacy 100.2) prior to creating a Program Card for a member. Please reference the Program Card Job Aid for additional details.


CMA Office Hours began on Dec. 13. These will be sessions to address Program Card, Care Plan, Service Plan, and additional CCM training questions agencies have.

CMA/DVR Roundtables

All Case Managers, Supervisors, and staff responsible for referrals are invited to attend the upcoming Roundtable sessions that are hosted by the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing (HCPF) and the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR). The objective of the Roundtable sessions this year is two-fold: 1) Education and 2) Networking.


This year there will be three sessions that align with the three CMA Transition Phases. All sessions will run from 10 a.m. to noon.


 What to Expect?


  • Brief update related to Case Management Redesign
  • Training on the intersection between DVR and DD/SLS Waiver Supported Employment
  • Networking opportunity with the DVR office(s) that serve your designated area
  • Confirm/establish contacts between your organization and DVR office(s)
  • Share your intake process
  • Outline your current (if any) referral process to DVR


Representation from CMAs is critical to the success of the Roundtable sessions. Thank you in advance for your participation and partnership! Ensuring CMAs have appropriate contacts with DVR and staff understand the sequencing of funding that can exist between DVR and CMAs will be invaluable in supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in their employment goals. 


If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact Jenny Jordan, Supported Employment HCBS Benefit Specialist at Jenny.Jordan@state.co.us.
