Children with Life Limiting Illness (CLLI) Waiver

A waiver is an extra set of Health First Colorado (Colorado's Medicaid program) benefits that your child could qualify for in certain cases. These benefits can help your child remain in your home and community. Waivers have extra program rules and some programs may have waitlists. The CLLI program provides Health First Colorado benefits in the home for children with a life-limiting illness. This waiver allows you to seek curative treatment while your child is receiving palliative care. Services offered with this waiver supplement the services that you already receive through regular health First Colorado benefits and other federal, state, and local public programs, as well as the support that you get from your community. Children who receive services through the CLLI waiver are also eligible for all Health First Colorado covered services except nursing facility and long-term hospital care.
