Oh, and patients from Las Cruces do not have to go through the border checkpoint when they LEAVE Ruidoso, meaning medicine can go from Ruidoso to Las Cruces. The only border checkpoint is going TO Ruidoso from Las Cruces, where you do have to go through the check. So paients in Las Cruces can take themselves without medicine through the border stop to purchase medicine in Ruidoso, and encounter no border checkpoint going home.
