FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ST. PAUL, Minn. — MNsure Chief Executive Officer Libby Caulum today announced that over 167,000 Minnesotans signed up for 2025 health plans using Minnesota’s official health insurance marketplace.
At the close of MNsure’s annual open enrollment period just before midnight on January 15, 167,163 residents had successfully signed up for private health insurance plans – a 14 percent increase over last year, which was also a record-setting open enrollment period. Sign-ups include consumers who are new to MNsure as well as current enrollees who selected a plan for 2025.
“I am extraordinarily proud of our work, together with our broker, navigator, and certified application counselor partners, to serve Minnesotans and help a record number find health insurance that meets their needs and budget,” said MNsure CEO Libby Caulum.
MNsure is the only place Minnesotans can access savings to lower the cost of health insurance. Sixty-one percent of MNsure enrollees will save money this year thanks to premium tax credits, which act like a discount to lower monthly health insurance premiums for eligible households. Statewide, eligible households are expected to save $538 per month ($6,452 annually), on average.
“Twelve years ago this month, state legislators introduced a bill to establish the marketplace with a vision that Minnesotans would have improved access to quality health coverage and save over $1 billion by using it to purchase insurance,” added Caulum. “I’m so pleased to say that, since we were established, MNsure has helped tens of thousands of Minnesotans get comprehensive health insurance and save more than twice the amount state leaders had hoped for – over $2.3 billion in savings, to date.”
Outside of MNsure’s annual open enrollment period, Minnesotans who don’t have health insurance may still have opportunities to get covered. After January 15, Minnesotans who experience a major life event like getting married, having a baby, or losing employer-sponsored insurance may be eligible to shop for coverage through MNsure. The January 15 deadline does not apply to residents who qualify for Medical Assistance or MinnesotaCare, or members of federally recognized tribes, who can enroll in health insurance through MNsure any time of year.
MNsure is Minnesota's health insurance marketplace where individuals and families can shop, compare and choose health insurance coverage that meets their needs. MNsure is the only place you can apply for financial help to lower the cost of your monthly insurance premium and out-of-pocket costs. Most Minnesotans who enroll through MNsure qualify for financial help
