MinnesotaCare

MinnesotaCare is a public program that helps pay medical expenses for people with low to middle income. It is for individuals and families who:

• Can’t get affordable insurance through their job, Medical Assistance (MA), or Medicare, and
• Make 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines or less ($29,160 or less per year if you're single; $60,000 or less for a family of four).

If you qualify, MinnesotaCare will help pay for your visits to the doctor, hospital stays, prescription drugs, medical equipment, and other medical services. To get MinnesotaCare, you may have to pay a monthly premium ($28 per family member or less).

Generally, if you are 21 years old or older, you pay copayments for medications.
