Stay Covered, New Mexico!
1. Check Your Medicaid Eligibility at yes.state.nm.us
Go to yes.state.nm.us and submit an application to see if you are eligible for Medicaid, which may be your most cost-effective insurance option. Applying is the only way to know if you are eligible.
2. Find Affordable Health Coverage at beWellnm.com
If you are not eligible for Medicaid, you can get affordable health insurance by going to New Mexico’s health insurance marketplace, beWellnm.com. You can also call 1-833-862-3935.
3. Check With Your Employer
Many employers offer health insurance benefits and cover a portion of monthly premiums. You may get health insurance through your job or someone in your household’s job.
Why is Health Coverage Important?
Financial Protection for the Unexpected
According to healthcare.gov, the average cost of three days in the hospital is around $30,000. Medical debt can also lead to increased stress and impact your credit score.
Peace of Mind
If you’re paying for medical services out of pocket, you may make health care decisions based on money instead of what’s best for your health and well-being. Having health insurance gives you the peace of mind that you will always have your health care covered.
