Minnesota has adopted ACA Medicaid expansion.
For FFY2026 (Oct 1, 2025 - Sep 30, 2026), Minnesota's Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (FMAP) is 50.68%.

Minnesota's longstanding section 1115 demonstration (Project No. 11-W-00039/5), first approved and implemented July 1995. Provides health care services through a prepaid, capitated managed care delivery model operating statewide for Medicaid ('Medical Assistance') and (formerly) MinnesotaCare eligibles; managed care enrollment is mandatory for Medicaid state-plan groups not otherwise exempt.
