Health Insurance

Thirteen states, including Minnesota, cover weight loss medications for obesity treatments through Medicaid, according to Kaiser's 2025 Medicaid budget survey.

A new statewide research project created by the Legislature is connecting the dots in trying to make health care affordable for everyone.

Survey results indicate around 116,000 more Minnesotans went without health insurance in 2025 than they did in 2023.

The enrollment start date for people who get their coverage through MNsure, Minnesota's insurance exchange through the Affordable Care Act, is Nov. 1, 2025.

The much discussed federal subsidy, whose Dec. 31, 2025, expiration strikes at the heart of the budget stalemate that led to the federal shutdown, is “only part of the answer” for mind-boggling health insurance hikes.
