We Help Students and Families Access Health Coverage and Care

Do your students’ families need help understanding their health insurance options? Portico’s certified MNsure Navigators can assist with the MNsure application and enrollment process from start to finish.

Our Process

Families can schedule a consultation appointment by clicking the link below, calling us at 651.489.CARE (2273), or completing the referral form below. Portico Healthnet staff are available 8:00 am – 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Calls are answered in English, Spanish, Hmong, and Somali. We provide interpreters for all other languages. Portico staff will collect the family’s contact information and ask some basic questions about their family size, income, and health insurance status. Those who need to complete a MNsure application will be scheduled with a Portico MNsure Navigator for a phone-based appointment.
