2017 Plan Premium Lookup

Information You'll Need

The ZIP code and county where you lived for each month of the year you had coverage in a private health plan (also known as a qualified health plan or QHP).
The birth date of each member of your coverage family. Your coverage family includes everyone in your family who was enrolled in a private health plan through MNsure, but excludes those family members who had access to other minimum essential coverage during the tax year. Individuals who have access to other minimum essential coverage are not eligible for the premium tax credit. The number of people in your coverage family may have changed from month to month. If any member of your family had access to or was enrolled in other minimum essential coverage for any month, do not include that person in your coverage family when looking up the SLCSP premium for that month. For more information on minimum essential coverage and who can take the premium tax credit see IRS instructions for Form 8962 (PDF).
The date your health care coverage began. This is your policy start date and is listed on your Form 1095-A in Part I, box 10.
The date you selected your 2017 plan. This is to identify the second-lowest-cost silver plan that was available to you at the time you enrolled.
- If you were automatically renewed for your 2017 plan, enter November 1, 2016, as the date you selected a plan.
- If you selected your plan online at mnsure.org, you can login to your account and go the enrollment screen to view plan dates.
- If you enrolled during open enrollment for 2017, then you can refer to your enrollment confirmation notice.
- If you’re still having trouble recalling the date you selected your 2017 plan, use your own records or best recollection of the date.
