Open enrollment for the state’s health insurance marketplace, Connect for Health Colorado, begins today. The marketplace is the only place Coloradans can get federal financial assistance to purchase health insurance. Six health insurance companies are offering medical plans for 2025, and dental and vision plans are also available. 

Customers can use the Quick Cost and Plan Finder tool to browse and compare plans, and insurance brokers are available to provide support in multiple languages free of charge. The state also advises Coloradans who no longer receive insurance coverage through Medicaid to review their coverage options with Connect for Health during the open enrollment period. 

 “Ensuring affordable, quality health care for every Coloradan has been a cornerstone of our administration,” said Lt. Governor and Director of the Office of Saving People Money on Health Care Dianne Primavera. “This Open Enrollment period is an opportunity for individuals and families across every corner of our state to access the coverage they need.”

The last day to apply for insurance for 2025 is Dec. 15.
