A Colorado settlement can be claimed by a hospital, a lien-basis provider, your health insurer, Colorado Medicaid and Medicare, and Colorado law limits each differently. Enter the settlement and each claim to see what is left for you.
Enter the settlement, your attorney's fee and costs, and each claim.
Hospital liens are governed by C.R.S. 38-27-101, provider liens by C.R.S. 38-27.5-105, and health insurer reimbursement by C.R.S. 10-1-135. Colorado Medicaid recovers under C.R.S. 25.5-4-301, and Medicare under the federal Medicare Secondary Payer statute.
Learn how Medicare and Colorado Medicaid recover from a settlement, how Colorado's made-whole statute protects you, and how hospital liens differ from a health insurer's claim.
A local personal injury attorney can review your claim — many offer a free consultation.
