Health First Colorado and Regional Organizations

If you’re part of Health First Colorado (Colorado’s Medicaid Program), you’re automatically assigned to a regional organization. Colorado Access is one of five regional organizations. Your assigned regional organization depends on the location of where you see your primary care provider (PCP).

Colorado Access is the regional organization for five counties: Adams, Arapahoe, Denver, Douglas and Elbert. This means that even if you don’t live in one of those counties, if your PCP is located in one then you are likely part of Colorado Access.

Changing your PCP may change the regional organization to which you are assigned. If want to change your PCP, call Health First Colorado Enrollment at 303-839-2120 (in Denver) or 888-367-6557 (outside of Denver). The Enrollment line is available Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (closed state holidays).
