Health Care Reform Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Providers

Signed into law on March 23, 2010, the Affordable Care Act (health reform law) has broad impact on those with and without insurance.

The CICP provides discounted health care services to low income individuals at participating providers. CICP is not insurance, rather the program seeks to partially compensate participating providers who care for the uninsured and underinsured at or below 250% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). Individuals enrolled in CICP cannot be eligible for Medicaid or Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+). Through 2014, participating health care providers will continue to be compensated for care given to those enrolled in CICP.

Individuals currently enrolled in CICP may be newly eligible for Medicaid or discounted health insurance coverage purchased through the Connect for Health Colorado marketplace beginning January 2014.
