Colorado home care margin recovery, starting with a free read-only Margin Review.
You are already delivering the care. In Colorado, the money leaks in the gap between what a payer authorized, what your caregivers delivered, what you billed, and what actually got paid. Reeve reads that gap on an export you provide, in your own browser, and shows you the records where the four numbers disagree. Your file is processed in your browser, and no name is written into any output.
Reeve does one job. It lines up four columns that almost never get looked at side by side, and it points at the rows where they do not match.
What Health First Colorado, the state Medicaid program run by the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, approved on the prior authorization: the units, the span of dates, the procedure code.
What your caregivers actually worked, captured in Electronic Visit Verification. Colorado runs a hybrid EVV model on the Sandata aggregator. Whether you are on the state Sandata system or your own Provider Choice system, the visit still has to land and match.
What went out on the claim: the code, the modifier, the units, the date of service.
What the remittance actually returned, and what it denied.
The money does not leak in any one column. It leaks in the gaps between them.
- 01The EVV to claim gap. Since February 1, 2022, an unmatched visit comes back denied as EOB 3054, EVV Record Required and Not Found. A missing exemption comes back as EOB 3056.
- 02The authorization gap. Delivered hours past the authorized span or unit ceiling. Reeve caps recoverable at what was authorized and surfaces the overage separately.
- 03Timely-filing risk. Colorado gives 365 days from the date of service, then requires a resubmission every 60 days to hold the claim inside the window.
- 04Code and modifier mismatch. Personal care commonly bills under T1019 and homemaker under S5130, both per 15 minutes. A wrong unit or modifier is a quiet underpayment.
Every number is illustrative and synthetic. Because your own export may not carry a rate for every code, findings on this page are expressed in hours, units, and records to check against your own rate sheet. On a real run, dollars come from the rate on your own export or the rate your own remittances actually paid most often, never from a rate Reeve made up.
Why an annual audit or the EMR alone misses this.
Your EMR is very good at helping you deliver care and drop a claim. It is not built to sit across authorization, EVV, the claim, and the remittance at the same time and argue with itself. Nobody is holding all four next to each other on a Tuesday.
An annual audit has a worse problem: timing. In Colorado you have 365 days from the date of service, and after a denial you have to resubmit every 60 days to keep the claim alive. A leak a year-end audit finds in month eleven may already be dead.
The EVV to claim gap is the sharpest edge, because since February 2022 an unmatched visit is not a warning, it is a denial. Reeve is built to look at exactly the seam the EMR and the audit both skip, and to look at it now rather than in eleven months.
Reeve reads across the seam the other tools cannot see.
Plain answers, on the record.
What a Colorado owner asks before running a review, answered straight.
- 01What does Reeve actually check for a Colorado home care agency?
- Reeve reconciles four columns on your own data: what Health First Colorado authorized, what your caregivers delivered in EVV, what you billed, and what the remittance paid or denied. It shows you the records where those disagree, including EVV match denials, authorization gaps, code and unit mismatches, and claims running out of the timely-filing window.
- 02Does my data leave my building?
- No. The Margin Review runs in your own browser on an export you provide. Names and identifiers are replaced with a coded reference locally before any reconciliation runs. Reeve reads only. It does not write to your EMR, does not file or edit a claim, and does not move money.
- 03What is EOB 3054 and why do my claims get it?
- EOB 3054, EVV Record Required and Not Found, is the Colorado denial for an EVV-required claim that has no matching verified visit. Since February 1, 2022, these claims are denied at a pre-payment review rather than paid. Reeve surfaces the delivered visits that failed to match so they can be corrected and resubmitted.
- 04How long do I have to fix a denied Colorado Medicaid claim?
- Health First Colorado allows 365 days from the date of service to file, even when the first result is a denial, and then requires a resubmission every 60 days after that to keep the claim inside the timely-filing window. Reeve ranks your findings by how close each date of service is to that edge.
- 05Which Colorado services does the EVV requirement cover?
- EVV-required services in Colorado include Personal Care, Homemaker, Home Health, Consumer Directed Attendant Support Services (CDASS), In-Home Support Services (IHSS), and Respite and Youth Day. Colorado uses a hybrid model on the Sandata aggregator, so whether you use the state Sandata solution or a Provider Choice system, the visit still has to match the claim.
- 06Are the dollar figures Reeve shows real recoveries?
- No. This page deliberately shows findings in hours, units, and records rather than dollars, because your own export may not carry a rate for every code. On your real export, Reeve prices findings off the rate on your own export or the rate your own remittances actually paid most often, and labels anchored figures plainly.
- 07Do I have to sign anything or install software?
- No install and no signature to try it. The Margin Review is self-serve and read-only. You provide an export, it runs in your browser, and you keep the findings whether or not we ever work together.
Collect is money you never captured. Cover is money a payer can still take back.
Reeve reports the two separately and never adds them together, because only one of them is yours to go and get. The Margin Review reads both on your own export and costs nothing.
One pass over your own export, in your browser. The findings are yours to keep, with no obligation.
The recovery lane. Care you delivered and never billed, units short of what was authorized, lines paid under the published rate.
Everything in Collect, plus the exposure lane. Retired codes, authorizations at the end of their period, care delivered past what was approved.
Month to month, no annual contract. Read-only in every tier. Run the free review.

No install. No signature. No sales call to get the number. You bring an export, Reeve shows you where the four columns disagree, and the findings are yours to keep.
- 01
Read-only. Reeve reads your data. It does not write to your EMR, does not file a claim, does not move money.
- 02
Names coded locally. Names and identifiers are replaced with a coded reference unique to your agency in your own browser before any reconciliation runs.
- 03
No client name, no address, no identifier is sent anywhere.
- 04
Honest by default. Illustrative numbers are labeled illustrative. Reeve never invents a rate; dollars come from the rate on your own export or the rate your own remittances actually paid most often.
Any dollar figures in examples are illustrative and synthetic, method rather than results.
