Everyone should have the digital skills needed to take part in online health care. To meet that goal, CIDE has created a new curriculum to teach digital skills to people who receive Medicaid supports and services. The curriculum takes a person-first approach designed to connect people online with their health care providers.
A pilot run of the initiative started in November with a group of 30 learners and 18 coaches from the Colorado Medicaid community. Feedback from this pilot will improve the curriculum so that it is ready for use statewide. Empowering a more inclusive digital experience benefits everyone and CIDE is proud to help out.
