You may even qualify for a reduced cost, low-cost or free plan. MNsure is the only place you can apply for financial help to lower the cost of your monthly insurance premium and out-of-pocket costs. MNsure offers: * An easy-to-use website where you can search and compare plans * A contact center you can call to talk with someone about your options * Places where you can get help and sign up in your community The MNsure website: * Allows you to comparison-shop for insurance online from health plans that meet baseline standards * Lets you know if you qualify for tax credits or financial assistance or low-cost or free plans * Allows you to apply and enroll online in health insurance plans * Shows you what your potential cost will be with examples of average costs * Allows you to apply for Medical Assistance and MinnesotaCare as long as you do not have Medicare One of the provisions of health reform requires that new health insurance plans must include a minimum set of health care services and products, presented in a way so that you can compare plans to each other and understand what the plans will cost. The minimum set is commonly called Essential Health Benefits and it applies to plans within exchanges and also outside of exchanges. The Minnesota Department of Commerce is responsible for setting the standard benchmark plan for the state.
