Health care coverage for adults without children

The income limit depends on your family size and the health care program you qualify for.

There is no asset limit. Assets are items like cars, checking and savings accounts, your home and financial investments.

Depending on which program you qualify for, you may have to pay a monthly premium and copays. The amount, if any, depends on:

• Your income
• If you live with your spouse
• If both you and your spouse qualify.

Depending on which program you qualify for, your coverage may:

• Start the first day of the month that we get your application
• Go back up to three months prior to the month we get your application
• Start the month after you are approved, or pay your first premium if you have one.

You may still qualify. You must tell us if you have other health insurance or could get coverage through an employer or military service. Sometimes we can pay the cost of the other insurance so you can keep that coverage.

You may qualify for only family planning services coverage.

You may also qualify for an advanced premium tax credit through Minnesota's health insurance marketplace, MNsure. The tax credit helps pay part or all of your health care premium. Even if you do not qualify for the tax credit, you can compare options and buy affordable insurance. You cannot be denied coverage if you have a pre-existing condition.
