PrimeWest Health Minnesota Senior Care Plus (MSC+)
Minnesota Senior Care Plus (MSC+) is a program for people age 65 and over who are on Medical Assistance (MA). People apply for MA through their county Social/Human/Family Services office. While you are in PrimeWest Health's MSC+ program, you will get great customer service and easy access to health care services. You will also work with a county case manager. Your county case manager can help you arrange health care and support services. County case managers and PrimeWest Health care coordinators work together to help you maintain your health whether you live in your own home or in a care facility.
To get the most up-to-date information about the MA program, go to the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) website.
Note: People who qualify for MSC+ may also qualify for PrimeWest Senior Health Complete (HMO). To learn more, visit the PrimeWest Senior Health Complete (HMO) section of this website.
