📣 IMPORTANT - Federal Changes to Colorado's Medicaid Program
Changes to Colorado Medicaid eligibility for some immigrants.

Starting October 1, 2026, some immigrants who currently qualify for Colorado’s Medicaid program, Health First Colorado, will lose health coverage because of federal changes to Medicaid.

Not everyone will lose coverage. Some people may still qualify for full coverage, limited services or other health care options.
