Denver, Colo.\u2013 <\/em>Connect for Health Colorado, the state\u2019s official health insurance marketplace, released its annual open enrollment report today. This year\u2019s By The Numbers<\/em> report<\/a> includes new data and information about the record-breaking open enrollment period for plan year 2025, which enrolled 296,449 people in health insurance through Connect for Health Colorado and Colorado Connect, Connect for Health Colorado\u2019s public benefit corporation.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report also includes more information about federal and state financial help that lowered costs for customers; growth in enrollments in rural areas; expert assistance available to customers; and interactive maps showing enrollments, plan prices, and financial help by county.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis year\u2019s report tells us there\u2019s growing demand for affordable, comprehensive, quality health insurance \u2013 and that Connect for Health Colorado is meeting this critical need for hundreds of thousands of Coloradans,\u201d said Kevin Patterson, chief executive officer of Connect for Health Colorado. \u201cThis has been our biggest enrollment period ever. That\u2019s due, in part, to our continued effort to inform people about their health insurance options and available financial help, as well as state and federal policies that increased access to affordable health coverage.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All About Costs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2025, federal enhanced Premium Tax Credits and Colorado\u2019s cost-sharing reductions helped lower the cost of monthly premiums and out-of-pocket costs for a record number of people.Notably, 80% of customers qualified for financial help this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enhanced Premium Tax Credits \u2013 passed by Congress in 2021, and extended in 2022 through plan year 2025 \u2013 returned more than $972 million as tax credits to customers; and 3 out of 5 customers could find a plan for $10 or less per month after tax credits were applied. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI cannot overstate the importance of federal enhanced Premium Tax Credits,\u201d Patterson said. \u201cThey make a tremendous difference in cost savings for everyday people across Colorado, and it is absolutely crucial they continue beyond 2025.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Colorado\u2019s cost-sharing reductions lowered deductibles, copays for prescriptions or doctor visits, and coinsurance for hospitalizations for 82,331 customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improving Rural Access to Coverage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Connect for Health Colorado\u2019s strategic goals is to advocate to improve access to coverage in rural areas of Colorado. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2025, nearly 26% of enrolled customers live in rural areas. Staying with a five-year trend, the majority of the largest increases in enrollments came from rural counties. In fact, 12 of the 15 counties experiencing the most significant growth are located in rural areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Impact of Expert Assistance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connect for Health Colorado\u2019s certified health insurance Brokers and community-based Assisters help customers understand and navigate their health insurance options. They guide customers through the application and enrollment process, share information about financial assistance, and help them understand how insurance works and how to use their coverage when they\u2019re enrolled. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2025, about 66% of all enrollments were completed with the help of a health insurance Broker or Assister, and 53% of appointments with Assisters were conducted in a language other than English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year-Round Support<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While open enrollment for plan year 2025 has ended, people can still buy health insurance or make changes to a current plan year-round if they experience certain life changes. Find a list of qualifying life changes<\/a> on Connect for Health Colorado\u2019s website.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
