New Mexico replaced Centennial Care 2.0 with Turquoise Care under the oversight of the New Mexico Health Care Authority (HCA). The program contracts with four Managed Care Organizations: Presbyterian Health Plan, Blue Cross Community Care (BCBSNM), UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of New Mexico, and Molina Healthcare of New Mexico. Practices must ensure all provider enrollments and clearinghouse EDI configurations are updated.
Presbyterian Healthcare Services operates both as the state’s largest healthcare delivery system and a major commercial/Medicaid health plan. Independent practices competing with or referring into Presbyterian must understand their proprietary clinical policies, network tiers, and authorization portals.
Medicare Part A and Part B claims across New Mexico are processed by Novitas Solutions Jurisdiction H (shared with Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Arkansas, and Louisiana). Novitas rigorously enforces Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs) on minor surgical procedures, clinical assays, and evaluation and management coding.
Under New Mexico insurance regulations, health plans must adjudicate clean electronic claims within 30 days and paper claims within 45 days. Additionally, billing for Native American members who participate in Turquoise Care or opt for Fee-for-Service / Indian Health Service (IHS) coordination requires specialized coding workflows.
Full-service billing and coding tuned specifically for Presbyterian Health Plan (Commercial & Turquoise Care) contracts and Novitas Solutions (Jurisdiction H - NM/TX/OK/CO/AR/LA) Medicare coverage policies.
