Tri-County Health Network

What Tri-County Health Network does

Tri-County Health Network (TCHNetwork, DBA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization incorporated in 2010 as a supporting organization of The Telluride Foundation, headquartered in Telluride, Colorado, with additional offices in Montrose, Naturita, and Delta. The organization delivers a coordinated portfolio of community health and social-support services across the rural four-county region of San Miguel, Ouray, Montrose, and Delta — an area 250 miles from Denver — serving Medicaid enrollees, uninsured/underinsured residents, older adults and people with disabilities, children and youth (ages 0-18), and immigrant and Latino communities. Core program lines include: insurance enrollment assistance (Medicaid/Health First Colorado, CHP+, and Connect for Health Colorado marketplace) via certified Health Coverage Guides; care coordination services including the ADRC, Medicaid Care Coordination for 13,000+ members under contract with Rocky Mountain Health Plans (since 2018), Palliative Support, High Fidelity Wraparound, Pathways, and the Frontier Senior Services Collaboration; behavioral health teletherapy delivered in English and Spanish via the HIPAA-compliant EasyCARE videoconferencing platform; the Skippy mobile school-based dental program; food security programs (SNAP enrollment, FoodRx, Cooking Matters); multicultural advocacy and Immigration Legal Services; youth substance-use prevention through Communities That Care; emergency/crisis funds; the New Eyes eyewear program; grief support; and the Regional Medical Shuttle operated in partnership with All Points Transit.

The organization's underlying technology footprint is modest: teletherapy runs on EasyCARE (third-party HIPAA-compliant encrypted videoconferencing), electronic records rely on standard firewalls, antivirus, password, and encryption controls with HIPAA Business Associates Agreements in place, donations are processed through PayPal and Braintree under PCI-DSS, web analytics uses Google Analytics, and the organization maintains GDPR policy compliance. No proprietary software platforms, AI/ML systems, or mobile applications are disclosed. Data assets include longitudinal community health data from the Telluride High School Healthy Kids survey (2017-2025) and recurring Quality of Life surveys.

Revenue mechanics are characteristic of a rural community health nonprofit: the organization is funded primarily through competitive grants from government agencies (Health Resource Services Administration, Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment, CDC) and Colorado-based foundations (Colorado Health Foundation, El Pomar, Rose Community Foundation, Trailhead Institute, Delta Dental Foundation), supplemented by tax-deductible individual donations. The vast majority of client-facing services are provided at no cost; the only monetized direct service is the Regional Medical Shuttle, where general-public rides to Montrose and Grand Junction are priced at $10 per trip while medical-appointment rides are free. Customers are therefore a mix of end-users (community members receiving free services) and institutional funders — foundations, government agencies, and one key contractual partner (RMHP). TCHNetwork employs 11-50 staff and operates a wide management roster spanning clinical care coordination, behavioral health, multicultural advocacy, IT/data systems, marketing, grants and evaluation, and HR.
