Accomplishments & Awards

2024 was a year of extraordinary accomplishment for the New Mexico Medical Assistance Division. Dana Flannery joined as director in March, steering the division toward successful renewal of its 1115 Waiver in July. With that renewal came federal approval to develop new programs to help New Mexicans, including Food as Medicine for pregnant members with diabetes, Justice Reentry services for youth and adults, Medical Respite to support members who are housing insecure after illness or injury, Traditional Health Care Practices for Native Americans and so much more.
