Question 1

What personal data does Health First Colorado and CHP+ share with the federal government? Is this reported in a way that protects individual people’s privacy?

Evonne Young · Accepted Answer

Reports include basic demographic and eligibility details, such as name, address, date of birth, Social Security Number (if provided) or Medicaid ID, and immigration status for every Medicaid member, who has received services through the Medicaid program. Reports are filed on a regular basis, so disenrolling from Medicaid will not prevent data from being reported to CMS. The exception to this is for people who have only received services through HCPF programs that are exclusively funded by the state budget.
