For Case Management Agencies

Referrals handled carefully, honestly and reliably.

giv.care Colorado employs the family members, friends and trusted people your members already rely on as Direct Support Professionals — and holds them to professional standards for training, EVV, documentation and supervision.

Continuity by design

Members keep caregivers who already know their routines and communication — fewer placement failures, less turnover.

Same standards for family

Family-referred DSPs complete the same background checks, training and documentation as any giv.care employee.

Clean documentation

App-based time and shift notes make monitoring and utilization review easier for your team.

Provider information

At a glance.

giv.care Colorado is a provider, not a case management organization. We don't determine eligibility or promise services — we confirm whether a person's authorized services, location, needs and chosen DSP fit what we're approved and ready to provide.

DD waiver services are coming soon

giv.care Colorado is preparing to add selected Developmental Disabilities Waiver services for adults who require access to support 24 hours a day. Case managers may contact us now to discuss prospective referrals, service fit and staffing needs. Services cannot begin until giv.care receives final approval and the member has the applicable authorization.

Services not listed as accepting are not currently available through giv.care Colorado. DD service availability will begin only after final provider approval. Every referral remains subject to eligibility, authorization, service fit, location, capacity, staffing and provider requirements. Transportation is provided only when specifically authorized and when giv.care is approved to deliver that service.

  • They have, or are pursuing, authorization for a service we're approved to provide.
  • There's a DSP candidate they trust — or they're open to working with us on staffing.
  • The member (or guardian) wants giv.care as their provider.
