12 Month Continuous Eligibility for Children in Medicaid or CHP+ Program

Beginning March 1st, the 12 month continuous eligibility policy for children under the age of 19 in the Medicaid or Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+) programs will be implemented.  Continuous eligibility ensures children remain enrolled in either Medicaid or CHP+ for 12 months, regardless of whether their household experiences a change in income or size.  For more information on continuous eligibility, please see the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing’s frequently asked questions here or go to Colorado.gov/HCPF/ACAResources
