This year\u2019s Open Enrollment runs through January 15.<\/p>\n<p>Among those 30 leading counties, only two \u2013 El Paso County at 102 percent and Adams County at 101 percent\u00a0 of the 2018 total &#8212; are among the 10 urban Front Range counties. Nine rural counties were at 110 percent or more of the 2018 Open Enrollment figure as of January 3. They are: Kiowa, San Juan, Custer, Bent, Rio Grande, Las Animas, Mineral, Huerfano and Cheyenne.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that our customers in rural counties face some of the highest costs and we are glad to see the number of residents of those areas who are able to protect their health and family finances by working with us,\u201d said Connect for Health Colorado CEO Kevin Patterson. \u201cColoradans in every county have only one more week to buy their own health insurance. I urge them to go to <a href=\"\/connect-for-health-colorado-reports-5-increase-in-healthcare-plan-selections-for-2019-open-enrollment-continues-four-weeks\/\">ConnectforHealthCO.com<\/a> now to see the savings opportunity available before it\u2019s too late. This is the time for the many workers whose employers aren\u2019t able to provide health insurance to act now to get their coverage in place for 2019. We are here to help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After January 15, individuals and families can buy coverage on their own only if they experience a life change event such as such as marriage, divorce, having a child, losing employer-sponsored insurance, or moving to Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>For purposes of this analysis, \u201curban counties\u201d refers to the 10 counties classified as urban by the Colorado Rural Development Council and \u201crural counties\u201d refers to the 54 that organization classified as \u201crural\u201d or \u201cag-urban.\u201d Read the full list of <a href=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/c4-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/2019-Plan-Selections-by-County-Compared-to-2018-OE-total-20190103.pdf\">county plan selection totals<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contact: Luke Clarke 720-496-2545 DENVER \u2013 Rural counties are leading the way in Connect for Health Colorado\u00ae sign ups as the state health insurance marketplace heads to the last week&hellip;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/connectforhealthco.com\/es\/rural-counties-lead-connect-for-health-colorado-2019-health-coverage-sign-ups-many-have-already-passed-2018-totals\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35132","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-press-release"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rural Counties Lead Connect for Health Colorado\u00ae 2019 Health Coverage Sign Ups;
