HF 4441 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Requirements and limitations relating to Medicare-related coverage modified.

This bill modifies Minnesota's regulations on Medicare-related health insurance coverage by repealing previous restrictions and updating rules on preexisting conditions, coverage suspensions, and enrollment periods. It directly affects health insurance carriers and individuals enrolled in Medicare Part B who purchase supplemental coverage in Minnesota. Key provisions eliminate preexisting condition limitations for new coverage within six months of Medicare enrollment, allow automatic reinstatement of policies suspended due to medical assistance eligibility, and extend enrollment periods for certain individuals who lose or regain Medicare eligibility. The changes take effect the day after final enactment, with some specific provisions becoming active on August 1, 2026.
