Do I have to buy health insurance in New Mexico?

I recently moved to New Mexico and started a new job. Now I am being told that I have to buy health insurance from my employer, or prove that I am covered under another policy. I am only 21, but I am a smoker and I know this will be expensive. I do not go to the doctor, and have not since I was 10. Do I have to buy coverage I won't use? Is there a way around this?


You should call a local health insurance company or/and ask your employers at where you work..


I will be moving to New Mexico and will need temporary health insurance between jobs, Any recommendations?



COBRA will allow you to temporarily keep your coverage. you'll have to pay the premium out of your own pocket. I think the average premium for a single person should be around $400 a month and maybe $800 for a family.

You can find more information from the US department of labor, and you should check it right away as there is a time limit on taking advantage of this.
