The HSAC is a 13-member council, made up of physicians, other healthcare providers, and a consumer representative, that provides leadership in designing healthcare benefit and coverage policies for Minnesota’s public healthcare programs.

The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), which oversees the HSAC, is committed to ensuring culturally responsive services. DHS strongly encourages individuals from diverse cultural and ethnic communities in Minnesota to apply.
