Minnesota Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement Plans

Medicare Solutions offers Medicare insurance plans in Minnesota from multiple carriers such as United Healthcare, Anthem BCBS, Coventry, Health Net, Humana and Secure Horizons.

Minnesota offers the Service Limited Medicare Beneficiaries (SLMB) Program, Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries (QMB), Qualified Individuals Program (QI) and Prescription drug coverage for Medicare beneficiaries. Together, these programs help those who may not be able to financially afford Medicare insurance plans gain coverage. Healthcare costs are increasing every year, and it is important for all individuals to have Medicare health insurance coverage.

The Service Limited Medicare Beneficiaries Program helps eligible Minnesota residents pay their Medicare Part B premium. In order to be eligible for SLMB, Minnesota residents must be:

1. Currently enrolled in a Medicare plan, both Part A and Part B
2. Your assets are within the SLMB asset limit ($10,000 for a person living alone and $18,000 in assets for a family)
3. Your income is within the SLMB income limit ($1,060/month for a family size of 1 up to $2,500/month for a family size of 5)

The Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries Program pays for Medicare Part A premiums, Medicare Part B premiums, Medicare deductibles and Medicare co-insurance and co-payments. You are eligible for QMB benefits as a Minnesota resident if:

1. Your assets are within the QMB asset limits ($10,000 for a person living alone and $18,000 in assets for a family)
2. Your income meets QMB income guidelines ($887/month for a family size 1 up to $2,087/month for a family size 5)
3. You are willing to assign any medical insurance benefit rights to the Minnesota Department of Human Services
4. You are enrolled in a Medicare plan, both Part A and Part B

The Qualified Individuals Program can help people pay their Medicare Part B premiums. The QI Program differs from the SLMB program as QI is available for only a limited time on a first-come, first-serve basis (funding must be available for the program at the point of application). You may be eligible for QI benefits if:

1. Your assets are within the QI asset limits ($10,000 for a person living alone and $18,000 in assets for a family)
2. Your income is within the QI income standards ($1,190/month for a family size 1 up to $2,810/month for a family size 5)
3. You are enrolled in a Medicare plan, both Part A and Part B
4. You apply while funding is available for the program

The Prescription drug coverage for Medicare beneficiaries helps those with limited income pay a lower out-of-pocket cost associated with Medicare Part D prescription drugs. Costs will vary depending on the type of plan chosen as well as your monthly income, but a Medicare Solutions specialist will be able to help you determine Medicare health insurance cost.

Medicare insurance plans change every calendar year and it is important to find out what changes will be taking place in your current policy, such as alternations in coverage and an increase in premiums. Medicare Solutions offers a free service to provide you with professional guidance on what Medicare plan best suits your needs, whether it be changing an existing plan or enrolling in your first Medicare plan. Balancing the costs and benefits of a plan can be confusing and overwhelming, but a Medicare Solutions specialist can help ease the process of finding the right Medicare insurance plan for you.
