BeWell NM, New Mexico's state-based ACA exchange, has launched a very handy new Enrollment Data portal which includes plenty of info for a data hound like myself to pore over:
First, the top line numbers (as of 1/04/23):
Number of enrolled consumers: 52,780
Consumers enrolled in Medical coverage: 52,018
Consumers enrolled in Dental coverage: 13,237
While dental coverage is also important, standalone dental plans aren't considered Qualified Health Plans (QHPs); it's the "Medical Coverage" which is the key number here.
Also, the total number above may look confusing, but most of the Medical & Dental coverage enrollees overlap:
Medical Only: 39,543
Dental Only: 762
Medical + Dental: 12,475
For comparison, last year BeWell NM reported enrolling just 38,384 people through January 7th, so it breaks out as:

This one is particularly frustrating. In addition to the filings being listed at the federal Rate Review website, every individual & small group market carrier also has their filings listed via the SERFF databaseand via New Mexico's own internal, searchable rate filing database...and yet I still can't run a weighted average rate change for either market because almost none of the filings at any of these three databases includes the actual enrollment data (Presbyterian on the individual market is the exception).
As a result, I have to once again settle for unweighted averages, which come to +5.6% on the individual market and +7.7% for small group plans.
UPDATED 11/07/23: In the end there were only slight tweaks made to a few carrier requests in either market.
Medicaid Forward would allow residents whose incomes are too high to qualify for Medicaid to instead purchase an affordable plan through the program. Medicaid is a robust, comprehensive program that already provides high-quality care to nearly 50% of our residents. Expanding this simple and trusted system will make healthcare less expensive for people of all backgrounds.
...Medicaid Forward is a good deal for New Mexico. New Mexico can raise its current Medicaid income limit and the federal government will still match nearly 73% of the costs. For the remaining costs, participants will pay for coverage on a sliding scale based on their income.
...Medicaid Forward would open Medicaid so every resident has access to affordable care. We envision a New Mexico where every person, regardless of their background or income, has the opportunity to live their healthiest life.
The annual report, as mandated by the 2021 New Mexico Statutes Chapter 59A, Article 23F, Section 59A-23F-10, and compiled jointly by beWellnm, New Mexico’s Health Insurance Exchange, and the New Mexico Office of the Superintendent of Insurance (NM OSI), offers a comprehensive analysis of various key aspects. These include the individual health insurance market, both on- and off-Exchange enrollment, small business enrollment, qualified health plan pricing, outreach and enrollment assistance activities, as well as strategies aimed at addressing the challenge of the remaining uninsured population in New Mexico.
