The Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (HCPF) has recognized the importance of being prepared for a power outage emergency for individuals utilizing life-sustaining medical devices.
With funding made available through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and in collaboration with The Center for Inclusive Design and Engineering (CIDE), we will distribute Battery Backup Power Supply Systems to eligible Health First Colorado members, assisting them in having the necessary equipment to be better prepared and in maintaining their health, safety and independence.
If you are interested in getting a Backup Power Supply System, please complete the application. Once received, the application will be reviewed, information verified, and a determination made if the applicant qualifies. There is a limited supply of devices. A final decision on applications will be made on eligibility and the availability of devices. All applicants will be notified of their results within two months of receipt of the application.
Please direct all questions to Julia Beems at 303-315-1284 or julia.beems@ucdenver.edu.
