MNsure has a new special enrollment period option that allows Minnesotans to enroll in private coverage. You may qualify if:
- Your household income recently decreased,
- You are newly eligible for an advanced payment tax credit because of your income change, and
- You had minimum essential coverage outside of MNsure at least one day in the last 60 days.
If this sounds like your situation, call us and see if we can help. You need to apply within 60 days after the income decrease.
Other ways you can get covered now:
- If you lost or are losing health insurance through your employer, or experience another qualifying life event (such as marriage, birth or adoption of a child, or a move), you may be eligible for a 60-day special enrollment period through MNsure.
- If you qualify for Medical Assistance or MinnesotaCare, or are a member of a federally recognized American Indian tribe, you can enroll at any time of the year.
- If you are currently enrolled through MNsure and your income has decreased, make sure to report it. Your eligibility for financial help will be redetermined. You may qualify to change plans in a special enrollment period if you become newly eligible for a tax credit or cost-sharing reductions.
