Prenatal Plus Program

The Prenatal Plus program is an enhanced program for pregnant Health First Colorado  (Colorado’s Medicaid program) members, who are at risk for negative maternal and infant health outcomes due to lifestyle, behavioral, and socio-cultural risk factors. Prenatal Plus provides a multidisciplinary team-based approach that provides care coordination, nutrition services, and mental health counseling in addition to routine prenatal medical care during the perinatal period. The Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (HCPF) encourages providers to refer high-risk, pregnant Health First Colorado members to a local Prenatal Plus provider or to start their own Prenatal Plus program. Email hcpf_maternalchildhealth@state.co.us for more program information or how to enroll as an eligible provider.
