Individual Health Insurance in Minnesota (MN)
* NEW QUOTES ONLY PLEASE
We do not have information about existing policies.
More than 5.1 million Americans make their home in the North Star State, giving birth to an additional 70,000 Minnesotans each year. Unfortunately, 9 percent of the people here in Minnesota do not have a current health insurance policy, but with the add-on policy, temporary insurance plans and plans designed specifically for the self-employed, temporarily unemployed to work in conjunction with Medicaid or Medicare,† there is no reason why every Minnesotan can't enjoy coverage.
Minnesota Health Issues
Before they are even born, good health insurance is a crucial part of every child's wellbeing. In Minnesota, 14 percent of new mothers do not receive the prenatal care they need, resulting in 4600 babies born each year with a low birth weight, 6.5 percent of all newborns. Another 10.5 percent are born prematurely and up until the age of 3, 18 percent of Minnesota's children don't get the immunization shots they need to successfully fight off potentially fatal illnesses.

Childhood obesity is an issue here, too, with 10 percent of kids between the ages of 10 and 17 classified as overweight. Only 55 percent of kids made it to both the doctor and the dentist last year. Even the most basic insurance policy would remedy many of these issues.
Health Insurance Needs in Minnesota
