We have made significant improvements as a state to reduce the uninsured rate, specifically for kids. According to the Colorado Health Institute’s Colorado Health Access Survey, only 2.5% of kids were uninsured in 2015.
Result of….
CHP+ expansion in 2010
And in January :
State expanded Medicaid eligibility for adults up to 133% FPL
State established a state based health insurance marketplace, Connect for Health Colorado, as a public non profit entity to serve individuals, families and small business purchasing health insurance
Whatever we do as a state we DON’T want to go backwards! For the Marketplace we are focused on getting more Coloradans covered, specifically the hard to reach populations (young adults, latinos) and small business groups as well as improving the customer experience.
Examples:
We are making improvements to the eligibility application to make the application process smoother for customers who are likely to be eligible for the tax credit and private insurance.
We are working on enhancing training and improving the tools our Customer Service Center uses so our team can be better prepared to help our customers apply and enroll.
We are revamping our small group marketplace to better serve small businesses and their employees.
