Access to Health Care
Source:
New Mexico Human Services Department
Purpose:
Improves access to health care by prohibiting co-payments for Medicaid recipients, exempting some Indian property from inclusion in resource determinations for Medicaid and CHIP, and making it easier for American Indians to utilize Medicaid benefits through Medicaid-managed care organizations ($25 million). Indian tribes are also expressly included as eligible for Emergency Contingency Fund for State Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).
