The tribe recently announced it plans to contract with Molina Healthcare to work toward a managed healthcare offering under New Mexico's Centennial Care Medicaid program.

Navajo Nation Counselor Daniel Tso says the new entity "will be a one-of-a-kind Medicaid program" designed to improve access and quality of healthcare on the Navajo Nation.
About 75,000 Medicaid eligible Navajos are living in New Mexico.
