About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the patient trust bond actually covers

When residents hand a facility money to hold — for personal spending, small purchases, care incidentals — federal nursing-home rules (42 C.F.R. 483.10) require the facility to safeguard those funds and assure their security, commonly through a surety bond. The bond protects residents if their trust money is lost, stolen, or misapplied.

Colorado mirrors this in C.R.S. 25.5-6-206, which requires a facility holding a patient personal-needs trust fund to post a surety bond sufficient to secure those funds (or otherwise satisfy the state department that the money is secured), to keep complete and separate accounting, and never to commingle residents’ money with the facility’s own.

The bonded amount is generally the total resident funds held, reviewed on a quarterly basis. We issue whatever figure applies from $100, and the application collects no credit information — and if your balance grows, you can file a replacement bond for the higher amount.

C.R.S. 25.5-6-206 / 42 C.F.R. 483.10Federal nursing-home rules (42 C.F.R. 483.10) require facilities holding resident funds to assure their security, typically by surety bond. Colorado’s C.R.S. 25.5-6-206 (with the related personal-needs trust fund provision at 25.5-6-411) requires a facility to post a bond sufficient to secure residents’ personal-needs funds, keep separate accounting, and avoid commingling. Confirm the required amount with your survey/certification agency.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Colorado patient trust fund bond?Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The amount itself tracks the resident trust funds you hold — usually reviewed quarterly — so it scales with your balance. Enter that figure and your exact price appears at the application.
Why is this bond required?Because a facility is holding residents’ own money. Federal nursing-home rules (42 C.F.R. 483.10) and Colorado’s C.R.S. 25.5-6-206 require the facility to secure those funds, commonly with a surety bond, so residents can recover if the money is lost or misapplied.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information. Most applications approve instantly; if a check does run on a larger bond amount, it’s a soft pull that never affects your credit score.
What amount should I bond for?Generally the total resident funds you hold in trust, reviewed quarterly. If you are unsure of the exact figure your survey agency expects, send it to us and we’ll confirm before issuing.
What happens if my balance changes?You file a replacement bond at the new amount. As resident trust balances rise or fall over time, the bonded amount is meant to keep pace — we re-issue at the updated figure.
