No insurance for kids affects more Hispanic, Latino communities

What does the disparity look like in Colorado?
Between 2017 and 2019, the rate of uninsured Hispanic and Latino children in Colorado tripled, according to a research from the Colorado Health Institute (CHI) released in April 2020. They conduct the Colorado Health Access Survey every other year.
It was eye opening, said Joe Hanel, the communications director at the Colorado Health Institute. It confirmed our worst fears, it was tragic, infuriating, and we actually felt a little helpless to do anything besides tell the story and put it out there.
Hanel said their study showed there were about 9,000 Hispanic and Latino children without health insurance un 2017. In 2019, that number went up to 27,000 making the rate nearly three times that of their non-Hispanic White counterparts. In fact the rate for white children dropped a little bit, said Hanel. ....

Originally, House Bill 21-1232 would have created a two-phase path to a government-established, nonprofit-managed public option for health insurance. The Colorado Option would have kicked in, in phase two, if insurers failed in phase one to meet premium reduction targets for standardized insurance plans sold on the individual and small-group market.
The bill s sponsors scrapped the second phase the public option after weeks of extensive negotiations with groups representing hospitals, doctors and insurance carriers. Most of those groups switched from an opposed to neutral position with the amendment, according to Rep. Dylan Ro ....

Colorado Health Care Bill Amended to Remove Public Option Provisions

Roberts and the other Democratic sponsors, Representative Iman Jodeh of Aurora and Senator Kerry Donovan of Vail, say the bill will still take unprecedented steps to lower health-care costs and improve access to care. Donovan and Roberts have worked for years on legislation to create a public option in Colorado.
“We never wanted to accept that there was nothing that could be done to change the status quo, which is what a lot of people wanted to tell us,” Donovan said during an April 26 press conference announcing the amendment. “So excited to say that today, we did get folks to the table to do the hard work of figuring out how to decrease cost and increase choice.” ....

Coloradans – and especially rural Southwest Coloradans – are in trouble when it comes to health care costs. Before the pandemic, about 11.2% of people in Southwest Colorado couldn’t afford medical insurance, compared to 6.5% for the entire state. Because workers who lost their jobs in 2020 likely also lost insurance, that 11.2% is certainly higher now.
According to the Colorado Health Access Survey, even those with medical insurance in Colorado report skipping doctor visits when ill, struggling to pay medical bills and being unable to pay for rent, utilities, food a ....

Donovan, Roberts: A path to more affordable health care

Valley Voices
On Friday, we marked one year since the first case of COVID-19 was identified in Colorado. In Eagle County alone, so far, over 5,000 people contracted the virus and 21 individuals have died from it. As we take time to grieve lives lost and sacrifices made, it is also important that we reflect on the inequities that this pandemic threw into light.
For everyone in Eagle County who had sick family members, were hospitalized themselves, struggled with new or worsening mental illness, or paused vital preventative care, the slow-rolling crisis of prohibitively expensive health care has become personal. We have reached an inflection point. The time to act is now. ....
