Depending on market conditions, DPS plans to sell $700 million in certificate-of-participation bonds and use 17 school buildings as collateral.

"The push-pull between costs and access to quality care is something lawmakers are also dealing with as they try to balance cheaper insurance and better coverage for Coloradans against negotiations with hospitals, insurers and others in the health industry over the details of the legislation, which in this year's iteration is a two-pronged approach."

"A new report ... reveals that the cost of health insurance for employers in Colorado is increasing faster than the national average -- and that employers are often pushing that added cost onto their workers. Meanwhile, an annual study released last year found, for the first time in its history, that the percentage of Coloradans covered by an employer-based plan had dropped below 50 percent. Taken together, the two reports paint a worrisome picture for employer-based insurance, the workhorse of Colorado's health coverage system."
