Using Colorado Medicaid – Health First Colorado

The CSU Health Network is an OPR provider (Order, Prescribe and Refer) with Medicaid. We are not a full Medicaid provider as Medicaid would then require us to see non-student patients. As an OPR provider with Medicaid we can see you for many services.

At CSU Health Network, students with Health First Medicaid/ Colorado Medicaid can:
  • Meet one-on-one with medical and psychiatry providers
  • Access mental health services and support
  • Receive lab testing
  • Pick up prescriptions
    • CSU Health Network pharmacy is contracted with Medicaid
CSU Health Network providers can refer you to outside Medicaid providers for additional services including:
  • Physical Therapy
  • Immunizations
  • X-rays
  • Dental services
  • Optometry
  • Procedures (stitches, IV fluids, IUDs/Nexplanon, injections, etc.)

CSU Health Network has a Referral Coordinator and a Health Insurance Specialist available to help you find a Medicaid provider in the community. They can be contacted by calling (970) 491-7121.

If your care requires a referral to a community provider and you wish to contact them directly, please see below for a list of some of the approved Colorado Medicaid clinics in the Fort Collins community.
