Colorado Division of Insurance
The Colorado Division of Insurance is liable for regulating all types of insurance sold in the state of Colorado as well as health insurance policies. The Division licenses all companies as well as agencies and controls all insurance entities. The division can be contacted for information about health insurance coverage, insurance agents as well as insurance companies. The division can be contacted at 303-894-7499 OR 800-930-3745.
Medicaid
On the other hand, Medicaid is a government program intended to help the underprivileged and poverty-stricken obtain health care services. It is believed that nearly 249,000 low-income children and nearly an equal amount of other people take up Medicaid as their insurance plan in Colorado. Pregnant women and children under age 19 who meet certain income necessities may be entitled for Medicaid coverage, along with aged, blind, and disabled individuals. It can be said that had there not been the establishment of Medicaid, half of the state would have remained uninsured.
