The Medicaid Buy-in Act
- Improves access to healthcare by expanding coverage for people who are uninsured and reduces the costs of health insurance.
- Reduces uncompensated care costs for healthcare providers and hospitals by covering more patients.
- Is a state-based coverage solution that leverages the existing popular and trusted Medicaid infrastructure, which already covers over 830,000 New Mexicans.
