NM Health Insurance Exchange

care-300x229.jpgNew Mexicans have the opportunity to choose high quality health insurance for themselves and their families through the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange. If you are hired into a benefit eligible position, you may choose either health insurance coverage through NMSU, or you may decide to purchase coverage through the NM Health Insurance Exchange program. Employees not eligible for health benefits through NMSU, including employees working less than 30 hours per week, temporary, and student employees, may choose to purchase coverage through the insurance exchange. If you acquire coverage through the exchange your premiums will be paid 100% by you, unless you qualify for a premium subsidy from the government. If you enroll in the exchange, you will be asked to provide your employer information. It is very important you list the following information to ensure NMSU is notified timely for verification of coverage information.
