Colorado Hospital Discounted Care

If you need help paying a hospital bill, you can see if you qualify for discounted care. Call the hospital at 1-844-746-2422 and speak to a financial counselor to see if you qualify.

Effective September 1, 2022, Health Care Facilities must have this Patient's Rights form available to the public and to each patient or each patient's legal guardian.

You may qualify if your income is low.

If you qualify:

• Hospitals and providers must limit your bills.
• You must be offered a payment plan based on your income.

You may still qualify even if you:

• Are not a citizen
• Are an immigrant

Your Rights Under the new law, you have the right to:

1. Check to see if you qualify for discounted care
2. Check to see if you qualify for public health care coverage
3. Be given a payment plan if you qualify

Hospital Discounted Care limits the amounts that low-income patients can be billed for health care services at hospitals and emergency rooms. It also limits amounts billed from providers who work at hospitals and emergency rooms.

Hospitals must give patients the chance to apply for discounted care when they have services at the hospital. If the patient qualifies, their billed amounts will be limited to the rates set by the Department of Health Care Policy and Financing (Department).
