New Mexico breaks the Medicaid mold.
On September 1, 1999, the New Mexico Medical Assistance Division implemented the Medicaid Personal Care service. The goal of Medicaid Personal Care is to improve the quality of life for the disabled and the elderly, and prevent them from having to enter a nursing facility. Personal Care allows consumers to live in their own homes and achieve the highest level of independence they can reach.
