MinnesotaCare eligibility expansion

SF 2323 would expand MinnesotaCare eligibility to cover more low-income Minnesotans, including those currently ineligible due to income levels. It establishes a new premium scale for these expanded enrollees and requires the state to seek a federal Section 1332 waiver to implement the change. The expansion would take effect on January 1, 2029, or after federal approval, whichever comes later. This bill directly affects working families and individuals who currently don’t qualify for MinnesotaCare but also can’t afford private insurance.
