Cover All Coloradans: Health Benefits for Children and Pregnant Persons

Cover All Coloradans is Live, Apply Now!

Thank you for your partnership in the development and launch of Cover All Coloradans to expand health coverage to children and pregnant people, no matter what their immigration status is. We remain committed to providing pathways to health coverage for all Coloradans. In response to concerns we are hearing in the community about data privacy, we wanted to remind you that your privacy is important to us and your information is safe under current state and federal law. All information shared with HCPF to determine eligibility for Medicaid and CHIP programs, including immigration status, is private and secure. If laws change at the federal level, we will update our information.

We encourage this newly eligible population to apply now for Health Coverage

What is Cover All Coloradans?

A new law called "Cover All Coloradans" helps children and pregnant people get health coverage, no matter what their immigration status is. This law helps all qualifying children and pregnant people see a doctor and get care when they need it.

Effective Jan. 1, 2025, these newly eligible populations will get the same support and services provided to Health First Colorado and Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+) members.

Who Should Apply

These groups should apply now, no matter what their immigration status is:

  • Pregnant people
  • People whose pregnancy ends on or after Jan.1, 2025
  • Any child 18 or younger

Coverage Details

Cover all Coloradans is a Health First Colorado and CHP+ “lookalike” program, meaning people who are newly eligible under this program will receive the same benefits as current Health First Colorado and CHP+ members.

To learn about benefits and services covered by Health First Colorado, please visit the Health First Colorado webpage. To learn about CHP+, please visit the CHP+ webpage.

Resources and More Information

Community Ambassador Program

As we wrapped up our phase I of our Community Ambassador Program in partnership with Colorado Health Institute at the end of June and begin to launch our phase II Community Ambassador Program for Cover All Coloradans, we take a moment to thank these Community Based Organizations for their involvement, enthusiasm, expertise, and commitment to our shared goal. We appreciate the time and effort these Ambassadors have dedicated to help spread the word and bring the HB22-1289 initiative to life through countless flyers created and hosted many events and informational sessions. HCPF is honored to have you as a partner.

Thank you!

Department of Health Care Policy and Financing (HCPF) is thrilled with the progress we've made so far through our Cover All Coloradans Community Ambassador Program! We are excited to announce our phase II Ambassadors.

HCPF is excited to partner with these 17 Community Organizations across the state to increase program awareness, provide enrollment support and engage the community. We look forward to working with these organizations to support the implementation of Cover All Coloradans.

These 21 regions are aggregations of counties developed by the Health Statistics Section in partnership with state and local public health professionals. The regions were developed using statistical and demographic criteria

Health Services Initiatives (HSI)

Through the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), states can develop Health Services Initiatives (HSIs) to improve the health of low-income children and youth. In Colorado, CHP+ is our Children’s Health Insurance Program.

The HSI program has been PAUSED while we secure federal approval for the program. We are submitting a request for federal approval for the following 5 programs:

  1. Emergency Food Pantries
  2. Baby Gear and Safety Supplies
  3. Reach out and Read Program
  4. Home Visits
  5. Lactation Support

We will re-release an application as soon as possible.

Learn more about Colorado HSI.
