MNCare is funded by enrollees' premiums, copayments, and statewide taxes, including a 5-cent increase in cigarette tax. MHP serves MNCare members in Anoka, Carver, Hennepin, and Scott counties. Hennepin County Employees is a self-funded health plan for county employees. Members can choose among three separate networks of providers MHP Preferred, MHP Medica Choice, and MHP Alpha. Members may use all three provider networks whenever they need medical services.
Coverage varies depending on the provider network.
Conversion Contracts are available to MHP members who disenroll from any of the MHP plans listed above. Conversion contracts allow members to continue to see the providers within their network with a slightly different benefit structure. Premiums for MHP conversion contracts are paid by the member.
