If your life takes a detour, make sure your health insurance goes along with you. Larimer Health Connect can help qualifying individuals and families who have major “life-change events” switch plans or enroll in new coverage through Connect for Health Colorado any time of the year. And it’s free.

Life-change events include such things as marriage, birth of child, change in residence and loss of health insurance through job change or divorce.

The Connect for Health Colorado Marketplace is the only place qualifying Colorado residents can receive special financial assistance to help reduce the cost of health insurance. This includes tax credits to reduce the cost of insurance premiums, as well as discounts that lower the amount some people have to pay out-of-pocket for expenses such as deductibles and co-payments.

Larimer Health Connect offers free, in-person assistance to help people choose a plan and navigate the enrollment process. It can also help people with Medicaid and Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+), which have year-round enrollment.  Call (970) 472-0444 for an appointment, or schedule online at larimerhealthconnect.org.
