Medical Services Board Looking to Fill Open Positions
The Medical Services Board that governs regulations for HealthFirst Colorado, the state's Medicaid program, is looking to fill five vacancies starting July 1, 2021. Individuals interested in serving on this Board must have knowledge of medical assistance programs and may submit an application through the Governor’s Office of Board and Commissions.
The Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing would like to have a diverse Board with various points of view and expertise and is currently in need of an individual from Congressional District 2. Presently the Board does not have a Behavioral Health professional/expert, who would be a true benefit to the people of Colorado. State employees will not be considered.
The Medical Services Board (MSB) was established by law effective July 1, 1994. Members are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Colorado Senate. Members are expected to thoroughly review technical documents, attend and contribute to monthly meetings. Meetings are scheduled for the second Friday of each month and are open to the public. The Board hears each proposed rule twice to allow time for the public to participate. If you have any questions or concerns about any part of this process, please feel free to contact chris.sykes@state.co.us.
