Most Americans need some type of health insurance plan. If you do not have this coverage in the state of Colorado, you can join the Health First Colorado program which is Colorado’s Medicaid Program. Enrollment in it is open year-round. You can go through the marketplace Connect for Health to learn your eligibility for federal assistance. Enrollment for it will be open between November 1 and January 15. After that you cannot get the financial assistance under this program unless you qualify for the Qualifying Life Event which denotes a major changing event in your life, such as moving to a different state, change in your income, or change in the family size.
You can apply for Health First any time. For other options, purchase your Colorado health insurance based on your specific needs. A wide range of insurance plans are available under this category for individuals, families and businesses. It is better to deal with a federal government authorized health plan partner.
