Innovive Health Expands Home Health Care Services Throughout Colorado

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado—Innovive Health, a home health care agency specializing in the treatment of patients with complex behavioral health and comorbid medical conditions, announced that the company has received approval from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to expand its home health services into Denver, Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties in Colorado. 

Innovive Health established operations in Colorado Springs three years ago to serve El Paso County and Pueblo County. The agency said the additional growth will support the agency’s mission to improve continuity of care for patients who have multiple medical comorbidities with complicating behavioral illness such as severe and persistent mental illnesses and substance misuse disorders by providing ongoing clinical care and educating them to enhance their well-being in the comfort of their homes, wherever their living environment may be.

“We are excited to continue to expand our presence in Colorado, and we are ready to serve complex patients across Denver, Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties,” said Joseph McDonough, CEO of Innovive Health. “In collaboration with our provider and health system partners, we are focused on [emergency department] avoidance and reduction in subsequent inpatient admissions and readmissions by addressing both the clinical and social factors that impact outcomes for our patients. Based on our success in Colorado Springs and other markets that we serve across the country, it is clear the investments made in home health care afford patients a better quality of life. Our services also allow hospitals to discharge stabilized behavioral health patients back into their communities into a high-touch care environment, helping to reduce the total cost of care for what is a traditionally high-utilizing population.”

Over 300,000 Coloradans are living with a serious mental illness, and almost 3 million live in a community without enough mental health professionals. According to the 2025 State of Mental Health in America report, Colorado’s adult mental health ranking dropped to 48th of 51 when comparing all states and the District of Columbia, and 50th for adults with a substance abuse disorder. Innovive said on average it serves patients that have at least one severe mental health diagnosis with an average of 10-12 medical comorbidities, and they also take up to 10-15 medications.
