[LWVNM Action] The Trump Administration Tries to Regulate the ACA Away

[Richard Mason]

For the 2021 plan year NM will have a state based health insurance exchange - no longer using healthcare.gov. We will be expanding the enrollment period to at least 60 days and will have control over our own data.

We have passed state legislation that puts in NM law many of the protections of the ACA.
There is also a good chance we will have at least some standardized plans that will allow New Mexicans to effectively compare plans.

That's unfortunate and I hope Biden reverses it; but really, most of
the services the article talks about don't exist on healthcare.gov
anyway. All that verbiage about being able to compare plans, find out
deductibles and coverage sounds lovely, but it's aspirational. The
actual plan information on healthcare.gov is frequently wrong and at
best unclear and incomplete, not very useful for comparison purposes.
