Colorado Resources
Colorado has several medicare, Medicaid and medi-cal programs that residents can sign up for and use to their advantage for coverage. With a growing drug epidemic that is happening in the state, the need for medical coverage is on the rise. Many states, including Colorado are faced with dealing with this problem.
With so much happening within this state, there is a bill that is set to expand the opioid treatment program that is going on throughout the state. Going through the treatment centers, they are hoping to raise more money to cover the help that so many needs while they are inside these centers. The centers are set to offer more beds to those that come for help.
Below are resources that provide more information for those that have Medicaid, medi-cal and medicare that have addictions. No one is left behind when it comes to finding addiction help. Help is always there when you need it.
