Upcoming Public Meetings

State Board of Chiropractic Examiners - Request for Written Comments:

The Colorado State Board of Chiropractic Examiners is proposing revisions to Rule 1.31 - CONCERNING HEALTH CARE PROVIDER DISCLOSURES TO CONSUMERS ABOUT THE POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF RECEIVING EMERGENCY OR NONEMERGENCY SERVICES FROM AN OUT-OF-NETWORK PROVIDER and APPENDIX A – YOUR RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS AGAINST SURPRISE MEDICAL BILLS. The purpose of the proposed rules is to establish requirements for health-care providers to disclose to covered persons who are utilizing a health benefit plan about the potential of “balance billing” when receiving 1) post-stabilization services or 2) covered non-emergency services from an out-of-network provider at an in-network facility. 

Please submit written comments to dora_dpo_rulemaking@state.co.us by July 10, 2025, in order for your comments to be considered before the public rulemaking hearing scheduled for Thursday, July 24, 2025, at 9:00 A.M. Written comments will be posted on the website under the "Public Notices" tab as received for all stakeholders to access and review.

Ex-Offenders Practice in Regulated Occupations

On June 4, 2024, Governor Polis signed HB24-1004 Ex-Offenders Practice in Regulated Occupations into law. Under this bill, if an applicant for a registration, certification, or license has a conviction for a crime, a regulator may only consider the applicant’s conviction for a three-year period beginning on the date of conviction or the end of incarceration, if the applicant has not been convicted of any other criminal offense during the three-year period. To learn more about this law and about how it may effect your application, please visit the Ex-Offenders Practice in Regulated Occupations information webpage.
