2014 Tax Tips for the Marketplace, Medicaid, and CHP+

Connect for Health Colorado Customers

Connect for Health Colorado LogoConnect for Health Colorado has posted important tax filing information for consumers who purchased a plan through the Marketplace. Marketplace customers will receive a 1095-A form in the mail. This form is needed for them to file their federal income tax return. All questions regarding the 1095-A form should be directed to the Connect for Health Colorado Customer Service Center. You’ll find more information on the Connect for Health Colorado website.

Medicaid or CHP+ Clients Members

Colorado Department of Health Care Policy & FinancingMedicaid and Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+) members will not receive 1095-A forms. The 1095-A form is only for Coloradans who purchased a plan through Connect for Health Colorado. If you were covered for all of 2014 by Medicaid or CHP+, you will simply have to check a box on your tax form saying you were covered. If you were not covered for all of 2014 by Medicaid or CHP+, you may want to apply for an exemption through the federal government using the IRS 8965 tax form. The Colorado Department of Health Colorado Policy & Financing is not responsible for granting exemptions — requesting an exemption must be done through the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). For more information go to IRS.gov/ACA.

Coloradans with special circumstances can still buy 2015 health insurance.

  • ​Did you just move to Colorado?
  • Did you have a baby?
  • Did you lose health coverage from an employer or Medicaid?
  • Did you turn 26 and are no longer on your parents’ plan?
  • Did you get married or divorced?

These and other “qualifying life events” mean you can still enroll and apply for financial assistance.
