Minnesota


Pursuant to Minnesota law, to be eligible for this program and receive an urgent-need 30-day supply of insulin, the patient must:

  • Live in Minnesota
  • Have an urgent need of insulin ("urgent need of insulin" means having readily available for use less than a 7-day supply of insulin and in need of insulin in order to avoid the likelihood of suffering significant health consequences)
  • Have a current prescription for insulin
  • Pay more than $75 each month for insulin
  • Not be enrolled in Medical Assistance or MinnesotaCare
  • Present identification proving Minnesota residency in the form of a valid Minnesota identification card, driver's license or permit, or tribal-issued identification. If the patient is a minor under the age of 18, the patient's parent or legal guardian must provide the pharmacy with proof of residency

Patient can normally access an urgent-need insulin supply only once in a 12-month period. However, if patient is waiting for Medical Assistance or MinnesotaCare coverage to begin, or if patient has been determined ineligible for a manufacturer's patient assistance program by the manufacturer and are waiting for the Minnesota Board of Pharmacy's decision on an appeal, patient may be eligible to access a second 30-day supply.
