How often does a collaborative agreement need to be reviewed in Colorado?

Question

Accepted Answer

In Colorado, a collaborative agreement does not have a mandated review interval. APRNs generally practice independently, so there is no standing requirement for a collaborative agreement or its periodic review. When an APRN is pursuing prescriptive authority, a written Mentorship Agreement is required, but the rules do not set a specific schedule for reviewing that agreement. Instead, the Mentorship Agreement must itself specify the process, documentation, and frequency of ongoing synchronous communication between the APRN and the mentor to ensure safe prescribing practices. If a mentor cannot continue (e.g., retirement or relocation), the APRN must secure a replacement mentor and enter into a new Mentorship Agreement.
