Thinking back on our story as we look forward<\/h2>\n

To Our Valued Stakeholders,<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week\u2019s election reminds us of our bipartisan roots and the continuing oversight of Connect for Health Colorado by representatives of both political parties.<\/p>\n

We had the opportunity to meet early with members of both governor campaigns and we continue to work with the incoming administration.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s good to remember that the original idea for a state health insurance marketplace (they called it a \u201cConnector\u201d then) originated with a panel formed by Republican Gov. Bill Owens. A Democrat, Bill Ritter, occupied the governor\u2019s mansion when the group delivered its recommendation and our outgoing Gov. John Hickenlooper was in office to sign the legislation when Republican and Democratic legislators passed a bill creating the Colorado Health Benefit Exchange, which does business as Connect for Health Colorado.<\/p>\n

That bill ensures that legislators in the minority and in the majority party share seats on our 10-member legislative oversight committee and each party names members to our board of directors.<\/p>\n

We congratulate all the voters and candidates who participated in Tuesday\u2019s election and we look forward to working with new friends and old friends at the capitol.<\/p>\n

In the News<\/strong><\/p>\n

Voters in Idaho, Utah and Nebraska approved measures Tuesday to expand Medicaid, increasing the number of expansion states to 36, according to a Washington Post account<\/a>. Changes in administrations resulting from the election could see the total rise to 38 states.<\/p>\n

Service Update<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have added personnel and we are fine tuning the telephone technology as we continue to see a large number of 2019 plan selections and challenging call volumes.<\/p>\n

We are grateful for all the early interest in getting 2019 health insurance in place, but especially for your continued patience and support in this work.<\/p>\n

Take care,<\/p>\n
