Colorado Revised Statutes Title 13. Courts and Court Procedure § 13-64-303.5. Exclusion--mental health-care facilities

The provisions of section 13-64-301 do not apply to any outpatient mental health-care facility, including a behavioral health safety net provider, and to any extended care facility or hospice with sixteen or fewer inpatient beds, including to nursing homes or rehabilitation facilities. The department of public health and environment shall by rule establish financial responsibility standards that are less than those prescribed in this section for classes of health-care institutions that have less risk of exposure to medical malpractice claims or for other reasons that render the limits provided in section 13-64-301(1)(b) unreasonable or unattainable.
