Increasing the Number of Insured Coloradans

 
The Department is announcing two programs aimed at making it easier for Coloradoans to apply for Medicaid or CHP+ through the Program Eligibility and Application Kit (PEAK). The two programs may sound similar, but are different: 
PEAK Outreach Project The Department, through funding from the HRSA SHAP grant, has developed the Program Eligibility Application Kit (PEAK) Outreach Project with the purpose of increasing the accessibility to the PEAK Website for Coloradans. 
The Department is issuing a Request for Applications making funds available to community-based organizations to purchase and place desktop computers, laptops, or tablet computers, for example, iPad, Android, Kindle Fire, at their locations in order to increase the accessibility for Coloradans to access the PEAK Website. 
 
The maximum funds that can be requested are: 
  • Desktop Computer - $750.00 
  • Laptop - $1,000.00 
  • Tablet Computer - $750.00 
Applications for this program are due no later than June 11, 2012.
