Colorado Signs $4.7 Million Healthcare Enrollment Contract with MAXIMUS

MAXIMUS, a leading provider of health program management services to government, announced today that the Company has signed a contract with the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing to continue to provide managed care education and enrollment services for Colorado’s Medicaid program. The contract is valued at approximately $4.7 million for a four and a half year term. MAXIMUS began services as the Colorado Medicaid Managed Care Enrollment broker in May 1998 and has since won three competitive bids to continue to provide these services in Colorado.

The program provides service for over 400,000 Medicaid clients statewide through a central processing facility located in downtown Denver.

“This is an outstanding example of the type of long-term partnerships MAXIMUS enjoys with our State government clients. In Colorado, we have helped consumers make informed decisions about their healthcare choices for more than eight years. This is a partnership that has truly worked for the State and for the citizens of Colorado,” declared Richard Montoni, CEO of MAXIMUS.
