Health Care Sharing for Real Estate Agents

Written by OneShare Health | 2:30 PM on October 22, 2024

As a real estate agent, your job demands flexibility, independence, and the ability to handle multiple responsibilities. You’ve mastered the art of managing your time, clients, and finances. But one area that often presents a challenge for many self-employed professionals, like real estate agents, is finding affordable, comprehensive health care. If you've faced this dilemma, you're not alone—and OneShare Health can offer a solution perfectly tailored to your unique needs.

The Struggles of Self-Employed Professionals

Real estate agents often enjoy the freedom that comes with being self-employed. However, this flexibility comes with its own set of challenges, particularly when it comes to securing health care. Traditional employer-sponsored plans are off the table, leaving you with fewer options that can often be complicated and costly. Here are a few pain points many agents face:

  • High Premiums: Independent insurance options often come with high premiums, which can be hard to manage alongside fluctuating commissions.
  • Limited Coverage Options: Agents often find that basic coverage options lack critical features such as mental health services, urgent care, and preventive wellness.
  • Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Co-pays, deductibles, and other expenses can pile up quickly, eating into your hard-earned income.

Thankfully, OneShare Health provides a faith-based solution that aligns with the lifestyle and budget of independent professionals, offering flexibility and affordability.

OneShare Health: A Community-Focused Alternative

OneShare Health is not health insurance but Health Care Sharing Ministry that believes in the biblical principle of bearing one another’s burdens, including medical expenses. As a Member, you join a community of Christians who share in each other’s medical needs while enjoying a range of services designed to keep you and your family healthy and thriving.

Here’s why OneShare Health is an excellent fit for real estate agents:

  1. Affordable Monthly Contributions: For as little as $92.99 a month for the Classic Program and $72.99 for the Catastrophic Program, you can benefit from a comprehensive Health Care Sharing Program. This allows you to plan your budget without the hefty financial burden of traditional insurance.

  2. Flexibility: With OneShare Health, you can visit any healthcare provider, not just those within a specific network. This is particularly useful for agents who are constantly on the move and need flexibility in choosing where to receive care. However, with OneShare, you will have access to over a million top providers and facilities with their partner, the First Health Network, allowing agents and self-employed individuals to save even more money on their healthcare expenses. 

  3. Virtual Urgent Care (Telemedicine): Finding time for health care appointments can be challenging for busy real estate agents. That’s why OneShare Health offers Clever Health's Smart Virtual Care™ Suite at no extra cost. With 24/7 access to board-certified physicians, Virtual Urgent Care (Telemedicine), Virtual Primary Care, and Mental Health support, you can get the care you need from the comfort of your home or office.

  4. Prescription Discounts through RX Valet: Don’t worry about high medication costs. With RX Valet, Members have access to a vast array of prescription discounts, including free acute medications, significant savings on other prescriptions, and access to mail-order pharmacies. 

  5. Preventive Care: OneShare Health values wellness. With the Classic Program, Members receive 100% shared Preventive Services and one Wellness Visit per year. This ensures that you stay on top of your health and well-being​.
