This bill proposes an appropriation of two million dollars ($2,000,000) from the general fund to the Health Care Authority for the fiscal year 2027. The funds are designated for Medicaid-directed payments to the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, specifically aimed at increasing the salaries of graduate medical education residents and fellows.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that any unexpended balance remaining at the end of fiscal year 2027 will revert back to the general fund. This measure is intended to enhance the financial support for medical education and training within the state, thereby potentially improving the quality of healthcare services provided.
