Disclosure

Jefferson County Human Services does not endorse any of the resources provided. Prior to seeking services from any of the agencies listed, call the individual agency to verify eligibility and availability of services.

Health Care Reform

The Affordable Care Act puts consumers back in charge of their health care. Under the law, a new “Patient’s Bill of Rights” gives the American people the stability and flexibility they need to make informed choices about their health.

Medicaid Expansion

In January 2014, Medicaid eligibility requirements expanded to 133% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) for all individuals. The expansion of Medicaid will allow more than 160,000 Coloradans to gain access to Medicaid. You can access Colorado PEAK to see if you are currently eligible for Medicaid. The Health Insurance Marketplace helps people who are not eligible for Medicaid.
