Renewing Your Health First Colorado (Colorado’s Medicaid Program) Coverage

At least once per year, the state will conduct a review to determine if you and/or your family members still meet Health First Colorado eligibility requirements. This review process is called redetermination.

Here’s how it works:

  • Step 1:

    The state will mail the yearly renewal/redetermination materials to you and/or your family members 60 days before your redetermination date.
  • Step 2:

    Please fill out, sign, and return the forms, along with any extra required information. All information must be completed by the deadline provided by the state to avoid a break in coverage.
  • You will continue to have Health First Colorado benefits throughout this redetermination process.

    It is important to keep your information up-to-date. Visit colorado.gov/peak to update your address, phone number, and other important information, or contact your Local County Services Office.
