My shopping and purchasing experience in Colohealth was convenient and simple. I would rate my service a five out of five stars because the staff so far has been very helpful with no concerns. The only part that was difficult was choosing which plan was best for me because many plans are so similar. ColoHealth not only offered the most affordable but many different plans that best fitted my needs. The entire online process was not complicated and the website did a good job explaining many features.

Colorado Health Insurance FAQs
How does health insurance in Colorado work?
You can choose from Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum plans from a number of different insurance companies, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, Rocky Mountain Health Plans, and more.
All individual and family health insurance plans in Colorado require you to use doctors and hospitals from their HMO network. PPO plans, which allow for greater flexibility in which doctors you use, are available on some group plans.
If you qualify for a subsidy under the Affordable Care Act, it will be automatically applied towards your premium, and you will be charged the difference.
Post-subsidy premiums will show up when you get an instant health insurance quote, as long as you enter your annual household income.
What is a health sharing plan?
Members contribute a monthly fee, and when a member needs medical treatment, the funds are distributed to cover the cost of the treatment.
Health sharing plans are not insurance, they sometimes have more limitations than health insurance, and usually put waiting periods on pre-existing conditions. They are also substantially less expensive than non-subsidized health insurance.
You can check prices by getting a healthshare quote.
How are health sharing plans different from traditional health insurance plans?
Health sharing plans are not insurance, and they are not regulated by the state.
They typically have fewer restrictions on the providers you can see, and are substantially less expensive than unsubsidized health insurance. However, they may not share expenses for all of the same benefits as traditional health insurance plans.
Is health sharing a good option for me?
If you do not qualify for a substantial health insurance subsidy, a health sharing plan could save you thousands of dollars a year.
But note that health sharing plans do place waiting periods on pre-existing conditions, so are not usually a good option for someone with major health issues or undergoing current treatment.
How much does health insurance cost in Colorado?
The cost of health insurance in Colorado varies depending on several factors, including your age, zip code, the type of plan you choose, who else in your family will be on the policy, and – especially – your income.
You can use our Colorado health insurance quote engine to compare different plans and prices.

You may qualify for a special enrollment period allowing you to sign up at other times of the year if you are moving to Colorado, or as a result of losing group coverage, getting married, or having a baby.
You can join a health sharing membership any time of the year.
