can I apply for coverage in CO if I have private coverage in SD

im 18 and just moved to CO for college. since im going to a community college, they dont have a health insurance plan I can go under as a student. I am under my moms health insurance from back in SD, but im not allowed to make doctor's visits out here. under this plan, im only allowed to make emergency visits to an ER. she could up her plan so I can make appointments out here at like one location, but that 250 extra bucks a month she doesnt want to spend. the issue is that she wont let me pay the difference either. didnt even giving me a proper reason, she just wont let me.

i tried to ask my hospital to get set up with telehealth so i can at least do virtual appointments but they never got back to me. all of my doctors I brought it up to just said to come in when I visit home. the issue is I dont plan on going back for visits, ever. thats not even getting into how the Healthcare quality there is straight up trash.

am i able to apply for Medicaid even with this insurance coverage from out of state since I cant get doctors appointments in Colorado with it?

edit: almost forgot to mention im diagnosed with adhd, incase that affects anything
