The Lincoln County Indigent Health
Care Fund was established in 2000 as per State Statute 27-5-1, NMSA
1978, and is currently administered in accordance with
Lincoln County
Ordinance 2004-03. The fund provides assistance for the
payment of medical expenses incurred by individuals who fall under the
guidelines of Ordinance 2004-03 and who have medical expenses arising
out of emergency or life threatening circumstances. Ordinance
2004-03 defines eligibility requirements and the limitations of
assistance available. A copy of Ordinance 2004-03 is available
through this website. Only providers who are contracted
with Lincoln County are eligible for payment. A list of current
contract providers is available through this web site. New
providers may request addition to the Provider List by contacting the
IHC Administrator. Applications for assistance are
available from Providers and must be made within 90 days of the date of
service. Providers do initial screening and then forward
applications to the IHC Administrator for processing. All
applicants must provide requested documentation and complete an
interview with the IHC Administrator before claims may be processed.
