DENVER (AP) — A bill to modernize Colorado's Open Records Act got its first hearing in the state House Monday, with majority Democrats pushing for a measure that presumes the public is entitled to access government records in ways that can be analyzed by computer. Monday's testimony before the House Finance Committee pitted several government agencies against open records advocates who included Secretary of State Wayne Williams. Opponents included representatives of the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, which oversees Medicaid; the Denver Health and Hospital Authority, which operates Denver Health Medical Center; and the Department of Public Health and Environment. Other state-funded educational institutions such as the University of Colorado sought guarantees that the bill wouldn't trigger the accidental release of confidential data such as student Social Security numbers.
