Santa Fe New Mexican, The (NM)
Jan. 22—BeWellnm, New Mexico's health insurance marketplace, closed its open enrollment Jan. 16 with a record 56,447 residents enrolling in a medical insurance plan.
The enrollment count increased by 12,000 over last year, beWellnm reported, and 1,500 people enrolled on the final day.
The state's "Obamacare" health insurance exchange, which offers insurance to people who aren't offered health care by employers or are self-employed or retired, is heavily subsidized through the Healthcare Affordability Fund approved in 2021 by the New Mexico Legislature. Forty-one percent of customers are enrolled for $10 or less a month, beWellnm CEO Bruce Gilbert said in a news release.
The health care providers taking part in the marketplace are United Healthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico, Molina Health Care of New Mexico, Presbyterian Health Plan and Ambetter from Western Sky Community Care.
