Medicaid Coverage of COVID-19 Testing for All Uninsured

Please see Supplement #2: Medicaid Coverage of COVID-19 Testing for All Uninsured stating no health insurance plan in New Mexico may charge patient co-pays, deductibles or coinsurance for COVID-19 diagnostic testing services; and no test site or lab may bill any New Mexico patient for any portion of the cost of testing for COVID-19.

COVID-19 Notice

In the face of the evolving COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation, and to ensure continued access to services and care for all New Mexicans, providers are strongly encouraged to notify their contracted Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) and the Consolidated Customer Service Center (CCSC) of any expected or unexpected office or facility closures. This will assist the New Mexico Human Services Department (HSD), the New Mexico Governor's Office and the New Mexico Department of Health (DOH) in directing Medicaid clients, and all New Mexicans seeking care, to a provider/facility who can provide immediate assistance.
