Colorado’s uninsured rate has dropped to a record low of 6.7 percent, according to new data from the 2015 Colorado Health Access Survey (CHAS).
That leaves just 353,000 Coloradans without health insurance.
Findings from the survey, released today, reveal that the state’s uninsured rate has fallen by more than half since 2013, when it stood at 14.3 percent – or 741,000 people without health insurance.
