New applicants who are not exempt from the work requirement will need to meet the work requirement the month prior to submitting their application, or show they are exempt.

Current Health First Colorado members who are not exempt and renewing their health coverage will need to meet the work requirement at least 1 of the months within their 6-month renewal period.

These rules are based on our understanding of the federal law. We will update these rules once the federal government gives more detailed information.
