New Mexico’s nurse hotline faces threat of shutdown

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) – A hotline that provides New Mexicans with free, around-the-clock access to nurses could shut down by the end of the year.
The Santa Fe New Mexican reports revenues for the nonprofit NurseAdvice New Mexico have declined, largely because managed care companies that long supported the program have switched to lower-cost services.
Records show that even though they aren’t funding the hotline, many of the companies’ patients continue to call the line.
