Community First Choice (CFC) is a Health First Colorado (Colorado Medicaid) State Plan benefit that helps eligible members receive attendant services and supports in their homes and communities. CFC promotes choice, independence, and person-centered care while allowing members to receive authorized services through different service delivery options.
Venture Forthe provides both agency-based services and In-Home Support Services (IHSS), giving eligible members options for how their care is provided.
Our team can help you understand the differences between these options and determine which service delivery model may best fit your needs and preferences.
