Bill > HB95

This bill, the Health Easy Enrollment Act, establishes the Easy Enrollment Program to help identify uninsured taxpayers and facilitate their enrollment in health coverage programs like Medicaid and qualified health plans through the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange. The bill requires revisions to state income tax forms to allow taxpayers to consent to providing their insurance-relevant information to the Human Services Department and the Health Insurance Exchange. The departments are then required to use this information to assess the taxpayer's eligibility and provide enrollment assistance as appropriate. The bill also creates an exception to confidentiality rules to allow the sharing of certain tax return information for the purposes of the Easy Enrollment Program.
