  • Highest gain in coverage

ever recorded

  • Coverage improvements

across virtually all demographic groups

  • Long-term uninsured

see structural barriers fall

  • Historical patterns in

disparities largely

  • remain. Uninsured are:
  • More likely to have

household incomes below 200% FPG

  • More likely to have fair or

poor self-reported health

  • More likely to have high

school or less education

  • Less likely to be white
  • Less likely to be married

* Indicates statistically significant difference from previous year shown at 95% level. Eligibility for public coverage is based on age, family income and eligibility for employer–based coverage (for MinnesotaCare) for 2015. Estimation of access to Advanced Premium Tax Credits (APTC) is based on a combination of family income and eligibility for employer coverage. The data does not allow us to determine if employer coverage is affordable. Source: Minnesota Department of Health, Health Economics Program, 2015 Minnesota Health Access Survey.

Potential Access to Advanced Premium Tax Credits (APTC)

Estimation of access to Advanced Premium Tax Credits (APTC) is based on a combination of family income and eligibility for employer coverage. The data does not allow us to determine if employer coverage is affordable. Approximately 26,500 MNsure enrollees received APTC in 2015 through October Source: Minnesota Department of Health, Health Economics Program, 2015 Minnesota Health Access Survey.
