New Mexico Health Connections 2020

New Mexico Health Connections 2020! 

 Here are some changes you need to know:

• New Mexico Health Connections (NMHC) is no longer working with True Health New Mexico (THNM) as their TPA. As their TPA THNM has managed NMHC's back of the house items and their network.
• Instead they have hired a Colorado company called Friday Health Plans to be their TPA and manage their network. 

Due to this there is Good news and Bad news.

Bad news first:

• NMHC's network will be different and changing. Mainly their providers.

Good news:

• NMHC's will still work with Lovelace and UNM hospitals.
• Because THNM is no longer the TPA for NMHC's they have decided that they are going to start their own Individual Health Insurance plan in 2020.
• They are taking their network which we have always know as NMHC's with them. So, if you want the same exact network you have had with NMHC's we will most likely want to check out True Health New Mexico's offerings at this open enrollment. 
• This is fantastic in a way as it creates more competition. 

Based upon all this above news NMHC's is still strong as ever!

Their TPA partner Friday Health Plans is a great carrier which I work with in Denver area as well. They are a strong and smart company when it comes to providing care to their customers. So, I am anticipating their customer service will be better than ever.
