The Colorado Practice-based Health Education Grant Program (PBHE) was created through Senate Bill 22-226, signed into law during the 2022 Regular Session of the Colorado General Assembly (Colorado Revised Statutes § 25-1.5-407). This program is housed in the Primary Care Office at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
The intent of the program is to:
a) increase practice-based training opportunities necessary for health professions students enrolled in accredited Colorado schools to complete degree requirements and become licensed to practice;
or,
b) program participants enrolled in other training or residency programs offered by a public or nonprofit Colorado medical school or residency program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) to gain hands-on experience in pursuit of a license in the health care field.
