In the health care industry, there can be many unknowns. But when it comes to OneShare Health, we work hard to provide our Members with transparency, especially when it comes to the sharing process and how exactly your Monthly Contributions are used to facilitate the sharing of Eligible health care costs within our Sharing Community.

Christian health share ministries are organizations that facilitate the sharing of Eligible medical expenses among groups of Christian families and individuals who have united under the biblical principle of assisting each other during times of need (Galatians 6:2).

Find out what sets medical sharing apart from health insurance.

Just what makes health sharing ministries like OneShare Health such an attractive option for individuals and families? For starters, we are not considered Christian health insurance. Instead, we’re a Christian Health Care Sharing Ministry that welcomes and unites Members who agree with our core biblical principles and Statement of Beliefs relating to life, health, and caring for others.

What Exactly is Medical Cost Sharing?

Protecting our loved ones from the unknown is no easy task, especially during these uncertain times. As health care costs continue to rise (and with them, our blood pressure), finding a health care program that’s affordable, flexible, and, most importantly, reliable should be at the top of everyone’s to-do list.

Maybe you or a loved one has been furloughed, and paying for traditional health insurance is no longer feasible. But did you know that you can still access quality health care by trusted health care providers without going the traditional route? Ever heard of “medical cost sharing”?

When is Open Enrollment?

For most companies, it’s one time a year. But for OneShare Health, it's all year.

As COVID-19 continues to take its toll, and Open Enrollment begins for most health care companies, consumers are seriously rethinking how they receive health care. The pandemic has drastically affected many Americans’ ability to access health care as companies—traditionally the source of a health care program—continue to implement job furloughs.

While cost-sharing ministries have been providing their Members with affordable ways to pay for medical costs for years, they have also been important organizations in the United States for decades.

So, just what led to the creation of Christian Health Care Sharing Ministries? Let’s look at the history of medical cost-sharing and see how these programs continue to help their Members find affordable ways to pay for health care.

While the autumn season unfolds according to plan, our holiday engagements are also starting to unravel as COVID-19 cases reach an all-time high (the CDC reported a +7% trend in positive cases within a 7-day period at the end of October 2020).

The reality is, families across the nation are revising their holiday traditions in order to cope with our “new normal” and prevent further transmission of COVID-19. But the question remains, how much longer are we expected to live with the consequences of this disease?
