Western Sky is going to be having an event next Monday for families in Las Cruces to get help with renewing their Medicaid. At this event we welcome the community to join and learn about their options for renewing their Medicaid or learning more about health insurance plans offered through the Marketplace. With the end of the public health emergency, everyone who had Medicaid or received food assistance now needs to recertify in order to ensure they do not lose coverage. At this event we will help the community learn about this process, actively help them in recertifying, or share options on how they can find a health plan through the Marketplace.
