- You are NOT eligible if you:
- Have insurance that pays for 100% of the cost of substance use disorder treatment,
- Are currently enrolled in Minnesota Medical Assistance, OR
- Have a household income that exceeds the limits of the program
- After determining your household size and household income, decide what applicant category you (the applicant) are in:
- Parent, step-parent, or relative-caretaker of a child under the age of 19
- Pregnant person or person who has been pregnant during the last 12 months
- Person aged 2 to 18 years of age
- Person aged 19 or 20 years of age
- Aged 21 or older without children (under the age of 19) in household
