Colorado’s health insurance marketplace also at risk under GOP budget bill

More than 100,000 Coloradans could lose health coverage they get through Connect for Health. And premiums would skyrocket.

It’s not just Coloradans’ Medicaid coverage on the block; the state’s health insurance marketplace is at stake as the U.S. Senate takes up the House Budget Reconciliation Bill, according to state officials.

If the Republican-controlled Congress lets cuts in a big budget bill take effect, tens of thousands of people who buy insurance through Colorado’s marketplace could lose coverage and premiums for the rest would skyrocket, officials said.
