MEDICAL ASSISTANCE ENDED
Did your Medical Assistance end? You may be able to get it back.
If your coverage ended because a renewal or proof was not turned in, you usually have until the end of the fourth month after it ended to send it in and have your eligibility checked again. MinnAssist helps you do it, free, by phone. Call MinnAssist at (866) 655-6606.
What to do now
- Find the closing letter and note the date your coverage ended.
- Call us. We look at what is missing.
- We help you fill out the renewal and gather proof.

If it has been more than 4 months
You can apply again any time. We help you with a new application.
Why it happens
Most people who lose coverage at renewal still qualify. The paperwork was missed, the letter went to an old address, or the proof was not received.
Common questions
- Can I get my Medical Assistance back?
- Often, yes. If it ended because the renewal or proof was not turned in, send it within 4 months after it ended, and the county checks your eligibility again.
