The 2011 Colorado Health Access Survey (CHAS) provides a wealth of information about the health status of Coloradans and a number of other health-related quesitons.

This presentation focuses on the most vulnerable Coloradans and points out that CHAS found that:

  • The ranks of Colorado's uninsured are growing, even among those employed.
  • The ranks of the underinsured are growing as well.
  • Various populations are disproportionally impacted.
  • Fewer Coloradans have a "usual source of care."
