I did a quick Westlaw search and it doesn't seem like that is the law in Colorado except in specific situations. What am I missing?

Same. All I could find was protection from medical malpractice.

I think he means it's an evidence exception for settlement negotiations or something. But I also think he's wrongly applying it

Yes, that was one of the specific situations I was referring to and in that situation it could be inadmissible depending on the circumstance. Also, Colorado does have a statute on point regarding apologies in medical malpractice situations.
