Step 2: Determine Monthly Premium for your family
  • Multiply the dollar amount from step 1 by the number of people in the household that owe a premium..
  • The result is the total estimated monthly premium for your family.
The following people in MinnesotaCare pay a $0 premium:
  • People in a household that has a combined annual income below 35 percent of the federal poverty guideline (see table)
  • Individuals under age 21.
  • American Indians and Alaskan Natives and their family members.
  • Military members who have completed a tour of active duty within 24 months of approval for MinnesotaCare and their family members (for up to 12 months).
This chart is here to help you estimate your premium amount prior to receiving your actual bill. The premium calculation performed by the system and listed on your bill is the official calculation and the amount you must pay.
