The Behavioral Health Administration (BHA) is a people first behavioral health system that meets the needs of all people in Colorado. If you have a concern or complaint, we will do our best to assist you and resolve the matter.
The BHA will accept and investigate all grievances and critical incident reports that it receives in a timely and effective manner. Furthermore, C.R.S. 27-50-108 (HB22-1278) requires the BHA, in collaboration with other state agencies and ombudsman offices, to stand up a comprehensive behavioral health system grievance resolution process that meets the needs of all Coloradans, by July 1, 2024. In order to develop a plan, the Agencies will work together to identify the relevant rules and laws related to grievances in order to identify barriers and policy recommendations. This BHA policy does not supersede other State Agency Grievance policies, but exists concurrently and in coordination with such policies.
Should you need assistance with a concern or a complaint, the BHA’s dispute resolution team is happy to assist you. You can submit a complaint by filling out the form below or contacting us directly.
