Roundtable discussion Health Care Reform in NM outreach and education

Making Health Reform Work in New Mexico:
A Roundtable on
 Outreach and Education
 
This January, more than 400,000 uninsured New Mexicans could get coverage through the Medicaid Expansion and the state’s new health insurance exchange.  But 4 out of 5 of them don’t know it.*
 
Strong outreach, education and enrollment assistance are critical to making sure people who become eligible for coverage actually get signed up. Without it, hundreds of thousands could remain uninsured and subject to tax penalties. And New Mexico stands to see a projected $500 million in new tax revenue because of the Medicaid Expansion alone –but only if people actually sign up!
 
Join us for a roundtable discussion of how to develop an outreach strategy that really works to connect 100% of eligible New Mexicans to coverage.
