New Mexico Medicaid

welfareservice, August 27, 2019February 3, 2022

What You Need To Know

Health coverage is provided to millions of families in America due to Medicaid. The objective of this benefit program is to safeguard the lives of children, pregnant women, parents, seniors, and disabled people. It aims to help those people who cannot provide medical services for themselves. Their low-income stops them from gaining the help they require. Therefore, Medicaid helps them to get the treatments they require.

New Mexico Medicaid carried out the same objective, helping out its resident by providing them with necessary medical treatments. This federal and state-funded program makes payments to the authorized medical service providers. The services that are catered to under the New Mexico Medicaid include:

  • Therapy
  • Surgery
  • Resources for special needs children and the elderly.

This benefit program allows people to qualify for it in almost forty ways. It allows a large number of people to apply and gain these benefits. The eligibility criteria for them have been outlined and elaborated.

The New Mexico program offers services to children with special needs through its school-based program. This allows them to provide the children with the following:

  • Mental health services
  • Physical therapy
  • Social services
  • Occupational therapy
  • Transportation
  • Audi-logical therapy
  • Case management
  • Speech therapy
  • Nursing services

Are You Eligible?

There are certain federal guidelines involved in Medicaid, however, New Mexico may add small variations to them. The program requirements for this benefit program start with the basics. This means that the person must be:

  • A U.S. national, citizen, legal alien, or permanent resident.
  • Characterized to have low income.
  • A resident of the state of New Mexico.

New Mexico Medicaid has been set up for those people who are unable to provide for their medical wellbeing. Therefore, to make sure that the most deserving individuals are helped out through this program, their income is considered. It is required that their income must be in line with the guidelines outlined. Therefore, the earnings before taxes must be equal to or less than the mentioned figures. Their respective household sizes have been mentioned alongside them. This makes the process fair for all individuals.

Size Of The Household Maximum Annual Income Level ($)
1 15,801
2 21,307
3 26,813
4 32,319
5 37,826
6 43,332
7 48,851
8 54,384

Household size may increase from eight. In this case, an additional amount of $5,533 should be added per extra person. It is recommended that a person checks with their managing agency. By keeping in touch with them, they can ensure that the most accurate guidelines are followed.

Undocumented immigrants get a chance to qualify for this program as well. The New Mexico Medicaid has set this up through the help of two categories:

  1. Emergency medical services for undocumented aliens.
  2. Medical assistance for refugees. It is important for them to meet the AFDC income guidelines. These low-income refugees can apply for Medicaid in case of any of the following scenarios:
  3. The AFDC standard of need must be met when earned income disregard is applied.
  4. All criteria for refugee cash assistance must be met but must only require refugee medical assistance.
  • The refugee must need a four-month medical assistance extension due to the loss of cash assistance.

How To Apply

An application portal has been set up to make the whole procedure a simple one for interested applicants. Therefore, you can visit the YES New Mexico site. Moreover, Apply for Benefits page is also available which outlines additional information concerning the application. These websites can help the person to download the form and complete it in the comfort of their home.

The interested families can also apply for this program in person. They can approach the Human Services Department’s Medical Assistance Division (MAD) in their local country for it. The representative will provide them with the form as well as helpful assistance or guidance.

A qualified individual must keep in mind that Medicaid eligibility only lasts for 12 months. Therefore, the renewal of the application after this period is important. Especially if they wish to maintain the benefits that they enjoy. These individuals will receive a renewal notice when their benefit period is nearing its end. This means that any changes in the income, the household size must be disclosed to the agency.

For Further Information

The Medicaid page is available in case someone wishes to gain more in-depth information about the program. This allows their queries to be cleared up. The Basic Health Program page is also available for similar purposes. It makes sure that the interested applicants have all their confusions figured out before they apply.
