If you have a baby, it is important to add them to your Medicaid case.
You can do this by calling your local Department of Human Services office or calling the Colorado Medical Assistance Program at 800-359-1991. Adding your baby to your Medicaid case will give them their own Medicaid ID and coverage.
Babies born to a mother on Elevate Medicaid Choice should also be assigned to Elevate Medicaid Choice after they are discharged from the hospital and have received a Medicaid ID. Once your baby is assigned to Elevate Medicaid Choice, you have 90 days to either get care at a Denver Health provider or opt out of the Elevate Medicaid Choice network.
To get care outside of Denver Health, please call Health First Colorado at 303-839-2120 to opt out. If you are unsure about your timeframe to opt out, call Denver Health Medical Plan Health Plan Services (HPS) at 303-602-2116. HPS can help you count how many days you have to opt out.
