I changed my Health First Colorado health plan. When will my new health plan start?

If you change your Health First Colorado (Colorado’s Medicaid Program) health plan then your new health plan starts the 1st of the next month. For example, if you change your Health First Colorado health plan on February 6, then your new health plan will start March 1st.

Until your new plan is active you are still covered by Health First Colorado, but some health care providers may not be able to see you. Make sure you have your Health First Colorado card on hand when making your appointment and when you go to your health care provider’s office.

If you have questions about your Health First Colorado health plan, visit enroll.healthfirstcolorado.com or call Health First Colorado Enrollment at 303-839-2120 (in Denver) or 1-888-367-6557 (outside of Denver). Hours: Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (closed state holidays). Note: The Health First Colorado Enrollment number is not for information on benefits or to find out if you qualify.
