How to Report COVID-19 Relief Payments for 2020

Health care providers, hospitals, and surgical centers that received COVID-19 relief payments during the 2020 tax year only need to report certain relief payments on the following lines of their 2020 MinnesotaCare tax return.

Gross Receipts

Include in Gross Receipts any additional reimbursements, such as add-ons or advance payments, you received due to the COVID-19 pandemic from these sources:

• Medicare or Medicare managed-care plans for Medicare-covered services
• Federal Employees Health Benefits Act (FEHBA)
• TRICARE
• Medical Assistance (MA) or MinnesotaCare
• Health insurers or other third-party payers of health care services

Do not report other COVID-19 government relief payments on your 2020 return. You must keep documentation, however, to support all COVID-19 relief payments you receive.

Medicare and FEHBA/TRICARE Exemptions

Include any additional reimbursements from Medicare, FEHBA, or TRICARE that you reported in Gross Receipts on the appropriate exemption line.

For detailed information on how to report COVID-19 relief payments on your 2020 return, see the Line Instructions section in our Provider, Hospital, and Surgical Center Taxes Instructions. If you have questions, email us at MinnesotaCare.tax@state.mn.us.
