The lady I made the appointment with called me to confirm for tomorrow and it turns out the BeWell New Mexico is the ACA exchange for the state and Medicaid is separate from that. She is going to go over the plans with me tomorrow and I can also go to the Human Services Dept of New Mexico to see if I qualify for Medicaid.

K. was a contractor and our insurance was not covered by the company he worked for; rather he got the insurance through the contract company. He had to pay the total of the monthly premiums out of his paycheck each time. We'll find out a lot more on Monday. At any rate since tomorrow is the 30th whatever happens I probably won't get new coverage until August 1st.

I'm mad that I had just hit the out-of-pocket max for the year in mid-May when everything then got covered 100% and I had paid off all my old medical bills that had piled up. I don't want to start all over with that in the middle part of the year!
