Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 23, December 10, 2024
To be eligible for medicaid, an applicant/recipient must be physically present in New Mexico on the date of application or final determination of eligibility and must have demonstrated intent to remain in the state. A temporary absence from the state does not prevent eligibility. A temporary absence exists if the applicant/recipient leaves the state for a specific purpose with a time-limited goal, and intends to return to New Mexico when the purpose is accomplished.
