General Disclaimer: The information posted on the Healthcare Professions Profile Program (HPPP) website was provided by applicants for an original license; applicants for reinstatement or reactivation of an existing license; as well as by those individuals renewing a license. While the Division believes the information to be reliable, human or mechanical error remains a possibility, as does the delay in the posting or updating of information. The Division makes no guarantee as to the accuracy or completeness of the information and the information is not verified by the HPPP staff. The Division will take action to obtain compliance with the requirements to provide accurate and timely information as required by law when information is received that indicates information required by law has not been provided or is not accurate. Availability Disclaimer: Healthcare professionals who have an inactive or lapsed license are not required to complete a Healthcare Professions Profile until they apply for reactivation or reinstatement. If you have questions about a missing Healthcare Professions Profile or any missing documents that should be listed, please contact the Healthcare Professions Profile Program at dora_dpo_hppp@state.co.us or 303-894-5942. Malpractice Claims Disclaimer: Some studies have shown that there is no significant correlation between malpractice history and a healthcare professional's competence. At the same time, consumers should have access to malpractice information. To make the best healthcare decisions, you should view this information in perspective. You could miss an opportunity for high quality care by selecting a healthcare professional based solely on malpractice history. When considering malpractice data, please keep in mind: Malpractice histories tend to vary by profession and by specialty. Some professions or specialties are more likely than others to be the subject of litigation. You should take into account how long the healthcare professional has been in practice when considering malpractice averages. The incident causing the malpractice claim may have happened years before a payment is finally made. Sometimes, it takes a long time for a malpractice lawsuit to move through the legal system. Some healthcare professionals work primarily with high-risk patients. These healthcare professionals may have malpractice histories that are higher than average because they specialize in cases or patients who are at very high risk for problems. Settlement of a claim may occur for a variety of reasons that do not necessarily reflect negatively on the professional competence or conduct of the healthcare professional. A payment in settlement of a malpractice action or claim should not be construed as creating a presumption that malpractice has occurred. You may wish to discuss information provided, and malpractice generally, with your healthcare professional.
