The bill establishes mandatory annual open enrollment periods for Medicare supplement policies in New Mexico.

  • Section 59A-24A-3

    [H.] I. "superintendent" means the superintendent of insurance."

    The definition of 'superintendent' is removed completely.

  • [NEW MATERIAL] ANNUAL OPEN ENROLLMENT.-- A. Every issuer participating in the market for medicare supplement policies shall offer an annual open enrollment period to all eligible policyholders. Each eligible policyholder's open enrollment period shall commence with the first day of the eligible policyholder's birthday month and remain open for at least sixty days thereafter. During the open enrollment period: (1) each eligible policyholder may purchase any medicare supplement policy offered in this state; and (2) an issuer shall not deny, delay or condition the issuance or effectiveness, or discriminate in the price of coverage, of a medicare supplement policy based on the health status, claims, experience, receipt of health care or medical condition of an eligible policyholder. B. At least thirty days before the beginning of an eligible policyholder's open enrollment period, but not more than sixty days before the beginning of the open enrollment period, the issuer of an eligible policyholder's medicare supplement policy shall notify the eligible policyholder of: (1) the dates on which the open enrollment period begins and ends; (2) the rights provided to the eligible policyholder by this section; and (3) any modifications to the medicare supplement policy currently held by the eligible policyholder or any adjustments to the premiums charged for that policy.

    A new requirement is established for issuers to provide annual open enrollment periods for eligible policyholders.
