Information related to COVID-19 is rapidly changing and evolving. As your health insurance carrier, we are committed to supporting our members and community through this challenging time. For the most up to date information related to COVID-19 in Colorado, we recommend visiting the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). We have made some temporary changes to our benefits to better serve our members and providers during this time.

We continue to monitor and comply with the changing regulations related to COVID-19 and the impact they will have on our members and benefits. This page will be updated as needed.

The COVID-19 Vaccine

Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 is the best way to protect yourself and others. Visit our COVID-19 Vaccine and Your Benefits page for information about getting a COVID-19 vaccination.

100% Covered. No Copay.

You may receive your COVID-19 vaccine at any convenient vaccination site, and the cost of the vaccine will be completely covered by Denver Health Medical Plan (DHMP) at no cost to members. If other services are provided during the medical visit where you are vaccinated, you may be responsible for those services.

  • COVID-19 Testing and Office Visits 
    • All DHMP members have access to medically necessary COVID-19 diagnostic testing at no cost. This includes medically necessary testing during in-network office visits, urgent care visits and emergency room visits as well as testing performed by out-of-network providers or testing centers. If other services are provided during the office visit where you are tested, you may be responsible for those services.
    • If you feel you may need a COVID-19 test, call the DHMP NurseLine at 303-739-1261 or contact your PCP to find out if your test is medically necessary.
  • Telehealth
    • The CDC encourages the use of video and telephone visits with your provider when possible. We have various telehealth options available to our members, which include telephone and video. Learn more about the options for your plan on our Telehealth page.
    • Telehealth can be used for many services like PCP office visits, some specialist visits, behavioral health services, and more.
    • Telehealth copays and cost-sharing work just like an in-person visit to your provider. There is no additional fee to use telehealth services.
  • Early Prescription Refills
    • You can fill most prescriptions early, and they will be covered by your plan. Some exceptions apply.
    • Applicable copays and cost-sharing still apply.
    • For specific questions, call our Pharmacy Team at 303-602-2070.
  • Medication Delivery by Mail
    • We have different options so that you can receive medications to your mailbox at no additional cost to you.
      • If you see a Denver Health provider, call the Denver Health Mail Order Pharmacy at 303-602-2326.
      • If you see a non-Denver Health provider, call MedImpact Direct Mail Order Pharmacy at 1-855-873-8739.
    • Applicable copays and cost-sharing still apply.

Medical Questions

If you feel you may have been exposed to COVID-19, you are encouraged to call the DHMP NurseLine at 303-739-1261 for advice on appropriate next steps. You can also call or message your PCP for advice on next steps.
