Happy Holidays from Doctors Care!

The End of a Commemorative Year
As 2018 comes to a close, so ends the 30th Anniversary year for Doctors Care. And what a year it has been! The celebration of Doctors Care's past achievements has been balanced with exciting new advancements in our never-ending pursuit of increasing access to health care for those in need.

Midway through the year, two exciting changes occurred - the clinic expanded hours for added convenience for our patients; and the age limit for clinic patients was raised to 50 years. Along with these changes came several new volunteer medical providers into the clinic, bringing quality expertise in treating the new patient population we began to see. 

The clinic is fully staffed and is accepting new Medicaid and uninsured patients for integrated clinical services including medical, dental and behavioral health care. If you or someone you know is a Health First/Medicaid recipient, call 303-730-1313 to schedule an appointment today. 
Women's Health Services 
Volunteers enrich the experience Doctors Care offers its patients and clients in so many ways. New volunteer medical providers with expertise in gynecological services has led to adding Women's Health Services in the clinic. 

Grant funding recently awarded by Caring for Colorado is providing the ability to further enhance these services in 2019 through the Contraceptive Access Change project.
Busy Open Enrollment Period Continues
As a Certified Assistance Site for Connect for Health Colorado, Doctors Care staff and volunteers have been helping individuals shop and enroll in coverage plans since November 1, when Open Enrollment began. 

Enrollment assistance appointments filled up quickly this year, and Health Coverage Guides have already helped hundreds of individuals enroll in plans on Colorado's online health exchange, or Medicaid, depending on individual circumstances.  Open Enrollment ends January 15, 2019. Appointments are available by calling 720-458-6185.
