 Health Education Project
The moment for health care reform is now. States throughout the nation are proposing and enacting substantial reform plans and Governor Ritter has made comprehensive health care reform part of his Colorado Promise. Everyone agrees that the current system is broken and needs to be fixed, but how? How can we come from our varied political positions and personal anxieties to agreement about a truly fair and sustainable health care system for us all? The Health Education Project is a presentation / facilitated discussion that will offer Coloradans throughout the state the opportunity to explore their views of the healthcare system, and discuss common questions and concerns central to health care reform, while providing information that can deepen the discussion. The project’s goal is to develop the principles, goals and ideas that an informed public requires to be ready to tackle healthcare reform in Colorado.

RELEASE: New surveys show Medicaid ID requirements cost more than they save
May 31, 2007
Three Colorado nonprofit organizations are advocating changes to the Citizen Documentation requirements in a new federal Medicaid law—the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA)—calling the requirements a huge burden on the state, counties, and citizens in need of critical services. The Colorado Center on Law and Policy, Colorado Covering Kids and Families, and the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative cited new data from two surveys released today by the Colorado Health Institute as evidence of a growing problem in the state\'s health care system.
