Navigator Tip of the Week: Calling the ARC – When does a consumer need to be present on the phone?

3/5/2026 3:13:51 PM

When a consumer must be present:

  • Username lookups / Password resets
  • To report a Life Event Change over the phone, if not able to be reported online
  • To deny a pending application
  • To attest to a Qualifying Life Event for a Special Enrollment Period (if the attestation/questionnaire was not already completed)
  • To attest failure to reconcile (FTR)
  • To close a case when there is current eligibility if the case meets closure requirements
  • When requesting to open shopping for the "Easy Enrollment" SEP (MN state tax return)
  • When requesting 1095-A information (this includes corrections and duplicate copy requests) 

When a consumer does need to be present, they must be on the call at the outset of the call.

When a consumer need not be present:

  • To close a case when there is no current eligibility if the case meets closure requirements
  • Expired consent for federal tax information (FTI), for FAST registration, or to request FTI letter to be sent from MNsure to the consumer
  • For reporting inability to access notices in the consumer’s account when there is a current case with the user id
  • To open shopping if the QLE/SEP questionnaire has already been completed and verification documents have been uploaded, match attestation, and meet document requirements.
