We are just one month from the start of our eighth Open Enrollment Period, which opens on Nov. 1. I’m proud of what my staff is accomplishing behind the scenes, especially on the technology front.

Our enterprise modernization efforts have been underway for nearly the past two years. As a reminder, we created our own eligibility system, updated our www.ConnectforHealthCO.com website, launched a new training system, and now we are implementing enhancements that will help our customers shop more easily.

The recent rollout of our enterprise modernization project gives us more ability to make our own enhancement and design decisions in the future, with real-time deployment, as well as set our systems up to be adaptable to future needs. Our technology team has put in a great deal of effort and these steps are the building blocks for everything we want to do in the future to streamline the enrollment process.

And as we keep rolling into October, next week is a busy one. I am honored to speak on a panel at the HealthCare 2020 Summit, which focuses on health care transformation as it relates to access and equity. And, I hope to see many of you virtually at our CoverCo conference. It’s not too late to register if you do want to join us. 

Be well,

Kevin Patterson, MURP, MPA
