Do You Or Your Family Need Health Insurance? Our Health Care Guides are here to Help!
Request AssistanceFinding affordable insurance is a front-and-center issue for individuals and families across America. This can be especially difficult for those who reside in rural communities on the Western Slope.
Our goal is to help you navigate the complex and ever-evolving world of health insurance and enroll you or re-enroll you in health coverage. TCHNetwork’s team of Health Coverage Guides (HCGs) are knowledgeable about low-cost and no-cost options from Health First Colorado (Medicaid), Children’s Health Plan Plus (CHP+), and Connect for Health Colorado, the official health insurance marketplace for Coloradoans.
Email us at or call Tri-County Health Network at 970-708-7096 to schedule an appointment.
HCGs complete 40+ hours of annual training so they can help people easily compare plans, apply for financial help (as applicable), and purchase insurance. A considerable advantage of purchasing health insurance through the Connect for Health Colorado marketplace is that it’s the only place where you can qualify for financial subsidies on monthly premiums and tax credits based on your income level. Extra savings may also apply in the form of cost-share reductions for deductibles and copayments, so please be sure to ask an HCG about these opportunities.
If you’ve lost coverage through Health First Colorado, apply through Connect for Health Colorado within 60 days of losing your coverage to take advantage of the monthly and out-of-pocket savings on your healthcare.
Please review the chart below to see what savings you might be eligible for through the marketplace.
