Your Medicaid eligibility and enrollment in New Mexico

The New Mexico Health Care Authority (HCA) runs New Mexico’s Medicaid program. To qualify, you must live in New Mexico, be a U.S. citizen or qualified immigrant, have or apply for a Social Security number, and meet income limits.

Common groups include:

• Adults ages 19 to 64 who are not on Medicaid
• Children and teens
• Pregnant women
• Caretaker relatives
• People who are 65 or older
• People who are visually impaired or who have a disability
