Jefferson County is offering a great resource guide on health care access for its residents. Resources include:
If you are pregnant and need immediate prenatal care, please call 303-232-6301 for Presumptive Eligibility. This program, based on eligibility, can get you the care you need while you are waiting to be approved for Medicaid.
If you are pregnant and have children, please call the Jefferson County Human Services Department at 303-271-1388 for information on how to get your family covered with Medicaid. While you are waiting for Medicaid approval, you might consider applying for Presumptive Eligibility (listed above) so your unborn baby can get a healthy start.
If you are already on Medicaid but need help finding medical, dental, vision or mental health care, contact Healthy Communities at 303-239-7041. The organization can help you find the correct care for you and your family.
If you have children and have applied for Medicaid but have been declined, you may be eligible for CHP+. This program can help you get medical care for your children under the ages of 18. There is a small annual fee and co-pays are based on factors such as income and family size. Please call 303-751-9051 for more information.
There is also help for all children enrolled in the R-1 School District. All children who are actively enrolled can apply to get Medicaid for their families through school. For more information, please call 303-982-7276.
