Judge orders Colorado state agency to turn over public records on hospital profits

The Denver Post: A Denver District Court judge handed a partial victory to a conservative news organization that sued the state for documents related to hospital profits.

Sherrie Peif, who writes for Complete Colorado, sued the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing for emails and other messages about price transparency, hospital profits and related matters in June 2023.

Earlier this month, Denver District Court Judge Jill Dorancy determined 29 out of 77 documents that the department withheld should be publicly disclosed, because they didn’t include deliberation on pending legislation or policies. She also allowed Peif to seek reimbursement for attorney’s fees.
