On Friday, February 21, 2020, the Arvada Chamber of Commerce hosted a Community Impact Breakfast to discuss the Colorado public healthcare option. Last session, state lawmakers directed agencies to create a public health insurance option available to all Colorado residents. Industry leaders explained at this event how a public option works and implications for businesses, providers and consumers.
The Arvada Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the Arvada Healthcare Alliance. Healthcare concerns are growing for our members and their families and we are focused on improving your local healthcare rates and access through the collective negotiating power of the Chamber.
We are committed to identifying local partnerships that will lead to Arvada having the healthiest workforce in Colorado. As we start 2020, we will kick off a pilot program with 30 businesses who would like to receive Direct Primary Care through Paladina.
