Thank you for your interest!

Updated Materials Available


New versions of the Uniform Application (Version 1.6), Clinic Client Excel Application (Version 10.1), and Federal Poverty Guidelines have been posted to the CICP Provider Information web page. All CICP Hospital providers must begin using Version 1.6 of the Uniform Application and all CICP Clinic providers must begin using Version 10.1 of the Clinic Client Excel Application on Monday, April 1


In addition to the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) updates in the Uniform Application, the following changes were made:


  • Expanded the application to accommodate households up to 15 members - this change was also made in the Clinic Client Excel Application (Version 10.1)


  • Changed the calculation of unemployment income, including automatically setting the end date for the household's determination to coincide with when the unemployment payments will end


  • Removed the CICP only card and updated the combo card so that the Hospital Discounted Care monthly max amounts populate automatically - this change was discussed at the October CICP Advisory Council meeting


Questions on any of these changes can be sent to hcpf_CICPCorrespondence@state.co.us.
