What is a health care sharing ministry?
In its simplest terms, health care sharing ministries collect monthly shares from their members (similar to an insurance premium) and distribute them to cover other members’ eligible medical bills. Health care sharing is typically more affordable, as our members often save 50% or more on their annual health care spending.
How does Medi-Share work with DPC providers?
When you choose to partner with Medi-Share, you’ll become a part of our Premier Direct Primary Care network that we offer to our community of over 400,000 members. We often recommend Direct Primary Care to our members due to its innovative approach and affordability. You’ll also have direct access to a Medi-Share team member who can answer your questions.
Do members already have to be part of a DPC practice to participate? – do we need to mention this from the provider perspective
No, members can start using a Direct Primary Care provider at any time as long as they are on the $12,000 AHP level requirement. When they start using a DPC provider, members can submit up to $1,800 of their DPC fees for sharing.
What other DPC resources do you give your membership?
We are always happy to recommend www.jointhewedge.com and mapper.dpcfrontier.com to help our members find a DPC provider that works for them and not for a health plan. By providing our members with these tools we are empowering them to take control of their health care choices.
