A renewal is a review of your income and other information to see if you and other family members are still eligible for Medical Assistance (MA) or MinnesotaCare.
Most MA and MinnesotaCare enrollees have a renewal once a year.
If you have MA, you can expect to get renewal forms about two months before the month you originally applied for health insurance. For example, if you applied in July, your MA renewal forms will be mailed to you in May. Do not worry if you don’t remember when you applied. We will mail renewal forms to you when it is time to renew your MA. If you have MinnesotaCare, you can expect to get your renewal forms in October.

About six weeks before mailing your renewal forms, we will mail you a letter telling you how to get ready and to watch for your renewal in the mail. When it is time for your renewal, we will mail your renewal forms and instructions.
You will get your renewal forms in the mail. We will send it to the mailing address we have on file for your MA or MinnesotaCare case.
If you moved, make sure to report your new address right away. If you have MA, or your household has both MA and MinnesotaCare, call your county or tribal agency. If you have MinnesotaCare, call DHS Health Care Consumer Support at 651-297-3862 or 800-657-3672.
