Health Care Coverage and Plan Rates for 2015 1
A Word about Rates
Each year, after a rate review pocess with the Minnesota Department of Commerce, health
insurance companies across the state determine what plans they will offer to consumers
inside and outside the Minnesota health insurance marketplace (MNsure). Plans are offered in
different geographic rating areas and in multiple categories: platinum, gold, silver, bronze and
catastrophic. In addition, income levels and family size can make Minnesotans eligible for a
public health care program (Medical Assistance or MinnesotaCare), or other forms of fnancial
help such as a tax credit (Advanced Premium Tax Credit) or a Cost Sharing Reduction.
For 2015, there are a total of 84 plans offered in the individual and family market on MNsure.
Because a consumers premium cost varies by region, health insurance plan, age, tobacco use
status, income and family size, this document is intended only as a snapshot of a consumers
cost. It is not intended to provide Minnesotans with their exact premium cost, tax credit or Cost
Sharing Reduction. Plan data refected in this document is the lowest possible premium in each
rating area. (These premiums might not be available in every county in a rating area.)
This document includes a snapshot of premiums and tax credits for individuals and employers
across the state as well as for families of four.
The family calculation was done based on two adults age 42 and two children under 18 years
old. This differs from last years family scenarios which were based on 40-year-old adults.
Shop and Compare
MNsure is the only place where consumers can shop and compare plans, as well as qualify for
fnancial help either through federal tax credits or MinnesotaCare and Medical Assistance to
help pay the cost of their health insurance plan.

Executive Summary
Open Enrollment begins November 15, 2014
Open enrollment for 2015 coverage runs November 15, 2014 - February 15, 2015. The vast
majority of Minnesota residents can enroll in a MNsure plan during this time. Enrollment is
available year-round for consumers who are eligible for MinnesotaCare or Medical Assistance,
members of federally-recognized Indian tribes, and participants in the Small Business Health
Options Program (SHOP).
The Amount of Advanced Premium Tax Credit (APTC) Will Increase
The benchmark premium from 2014 to 2015 increased across almost all parts of the state. This
means that more consumers will qualify for and receive tax credits. This will reduce consumers
monthly health insurance premiums for 2015 from what their costs would otherwise be.
More Plans Available
The total number of individual market plans available statewide increased from 78 in 2014, to 84
in 2015. The number of plans available in each county range from 26 - 72, with at least two plans
in every metal level represented.
Five Minnesota-Based Carriers Offering Plans
MNsure will have fve Minnesota-based carriers offering health insurance plans. Health carriers
include: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota, HealthPartners, Medica, UCare and BluePlus.

Many Minnesotans will qualify for no-cost or low-cost plans. MNsure is the only place this
fnancial help is available.
Financial help is available to help cover the cost of health care insurance premiums for
qualifying individuals and small businesses.
Advanced Premium Tax Credit
An Advanced Premium Tax Credit (APTC) is an immediate discount on your health insurance
premium. Your APTC will be deducted from your monthly premium, leaving you to only pay
the difference. A Cost Sharing Reduction (CSR) is a reduction on the amount of co-pay and/or
deductible you are responsible for. CSR varies depending on the plan you select.
Shop and Compare
MNsure is the only place where consumers can shop and compare plans, as well as qualify

What You Need to Know about MNsure Plans
When applying through MNsure, you can decide whether you would like to apply for fnancial
assistance. If so, you will be determined eligible for one of three possible plan types: Medical
Assistance, MinnesotaCare or a Qualifed Health Plan (QHP). This eligibility is determined based
on your household size and income.
What is a Qualifed Health Plan (QHP)?
A QHP is an insurance policy from a private company. If you qualify for a QHP, you will be able
to select a company you wish to purchase from, as well as the level of coverage that fts your
needs. All MNsure health insurance plans must design their cost-sharing (deductibles, copays,
coinsurance) to ft specifc levels of coverage. The levels of coverage are defned as follows:
Bronze level: the plan must cover 60% of expected costs for the average individual
Silver level: the plan must cover 70% of expected costs for the average individual
Gold level: the plan must cover 80% of expected costs for the average individual
Platinum level: the plan must cover 90% of expected costs for the average individual
What is Medical Assistance?
Medical Assistance is Minnesotas Medicaid health care program for children and families,
pregnant women and adults without children. People 65 or older and people who have
disabilities may also be eligible for Medical Assistance. There is no monthly cost for enrollees on
Medical Assistance.
Again this year, adults with incomes up to 133 percent of the federal poverty level and pregnant
women and children with family incomes up to 275 percent of the federal poverty level are
eligible for Medical Assistance. Eligibility and enrollment for Medical Assistance will be available
through MNsure, excluding those over the age of 65 or those with disabilities.
What is MinnesotaCare?
MinnesotaCare is a subsidized health care coverage program for lower income Minnesotans
without access to affordable employer-based health care coverage and who are not eligible
for Medical Assistance. Enrollees pay a monthly premium, determined by a sliding-fee scale
based on family size and income.
Adults with incomes between 133 percent and 200 percent of the federal poverty level
are eligible for MinnesotaCare. Eligibility and enrollment for MinnesotaCare is available
through MNsure.
Jamison, 31

Jamison found a plan on MNsure for himself
that ft his needs. He was also able to fnd
coverage for his infant son through Medical
Assistance, bringing him quality coverage
at no cost.

How Financial Assistance is Calculated
Through MNsure some individuals and families may qualify for fnancial help through tax credits
that will immediately lower the cost to consumers for private health insurance. Financial help
also may be available through no-cost or low-cost coverage under Medical Assistance or
MinnesotaCare.
The amount of premium assistance available to individuals and families depends on income,
age, and geographic area. Premium assistance is calculated based on where an individuals
annual income falls on the federal poverty level (FPL) table as well as the cost of a benchmark
premium. Below is a table that shows the income limits for various types of fnancial assistance
available through MNsure.
Below is a breakdown of what information is used to
calculate the fnal cost to consumers. In general, the
less income an individual or family makes, the less they
will have to pay for health insurance and the more tax
credit they will receive. Tax credits may be applied to
all individual plans except catastrophic plans.

Health Care Coverage and Plan Rates for 2015 6
Small Business Premium Tax Credit Calculation
Small businesses with 25 or fewer employees who earn $50,000 or less on average will qualify for
premium tax credits. Small business premium tax credits will only be available for health care
coverage purchased through MNsure.
To be eligible for the small business premium tax credit, employers must contribute at least 50
percent of the premium. The tax credit is determined on a sliding scale based on the number of
employees and average employee wage. The small business premium tax credit may equal up
to 50 percent of the employer paid portion of the premium.
Benefts Included in All MNsure Health Plans
All plans offered in the MNsure marketplace include new consumer protections guaranteed by
the federal Affordable Care Act, such as:
No discrimination based on pre-existing conditions or gender
No annual dollar limit on coverage
No lifetime limit on coverage
A cap on out-of-pocket costs
Allowing young adults to stay on their parents health plan until age 26, unless they have
access to coverage through their employer
Requiring that 80-85 cents of every dollar you pay for health insurance is spent on delivering
or improving health care or you get a refund from your insurance company
Providing consumers a standard, plain language summary of their plan
All plans offered in the MNsure marketplace cover:
A broad range of essential services, including doctor visits, hospital stays, maternity care,
emergency room care, prescription drugs, free preventive care, and more.
Preventive services at no cost to you. These services include things like blood pressure
and diabetes screenings; cancer screenings such as mammograms and colonoscopies;
vaccinations; fu shots and more.
Medical Assistance and MinnesotaCare is offered through MNsure and continues to include the
comprehensive benefts available through these programs today.
I did not think I would qualify for fnancial
assistance.
Minnesotans that may have previously been denied
coverage like MinnesotaCare or Medical Assistance
may now qualify due to changes in eligibility rules.
