New Mexicans can compare prescription costs online

SANTA FE – New Mexicans can now use the public portal of the All Payer Claims Database (APCD) to compare costs on prescriptions statewide.

The portal, which went live in August 2024, was developed to expand healthcare pricing transparency in compliance with the Health Information Systems Act and the APCD rule. This public portal will empower New Mexicans to compare healthcare prices and access information on healthcare quality, helping them make informed choices to seek quality care.

As of June 2025, the portal now includes prescription costs and is accessible in Spanish for the first time.

“New Mexicans can use the public portal to see the average costs for doctor visits, medical procedures and prescriptions,” said Ervin Garcia, Health Systems Epidemiology Program Manager for the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH). “The portal is now available in Spanish, increasing access to this valuable service.” 

About 900 people have accessed the portal in the last three months, Garcia said.

To access the portal, visit New Mexico APCD.
