Medi-Share members voted in 2003 to allow applicants with increased health risks to participate in a Health Partnership program rather than be ineligible for Medi-Share membership. Research shows certain conditions can be reversed or prevented through therapeutic lifestyle changes. By reversing and/or preventing certain diseases, people are able to live healthier and fuller lives.

When the overall Medi-Share membership is healthier, Medi-Share becomes even more affordable for our members as a health care alternative.  

Beyond the goal of making Medi-Share an affordable option for as many people as possible, we also believe that God calls us to steward our bodies well, honoring His temple with the lifestyle choices we make.

Health Partners are required to verify and submit laboratory results in order to graduate, as well as by the anniversary of your graduation, until your Annual Verification timeframe has been completed. If you do not already have an inexpensive means of obtaining a venous blood draw, please consider using a direct access Laboratory.

The Cholesterol Panel and HbA1c/A1c/Glycohemoglobin cost should be less than $60. Your lab work is a cost that you will be responsible for as members do not share in well-patient laboratory work, including when you pre-pay for lab discounts. These discounted services are not part of our PPO network and the savings are usually only available when you pay upfront and a doctor is not involved.

The verification form for height, weight, waist size, and Blood Pressure can be witnessed by a family member who knows or understands how to properly measure. You can also use a medical professional such as a: Fire Fighter, EMT, Chiropractor, RN, NP, CPT, etc. Complete instructions are included on the form.

The online resources and coaching support we offer have an excellent track record for successfully helping members graduate. The $99 fee remains in place until the Health Partner(s) is able to reach the goals outlined in the agreement, regardless of how long it takes. This fee enables members to continue to access the support materials long-term to help them reach their goals.
