Running your own small business is a rewarding yet challenging path. You get the freedom to follow your passion and serve others, but managing health care costs often becomes one of the most significant hurdles, especially during this stage of life. For Christian small business owners, health insurance options might feel overwhelming, offering high premiums, low flexibility, and coverage that doesn’t align with Christian values.
This is where Medi-Share emerges as a valuable health care solution. Designed with faith and community in mind, Medi Share provides an affordable, flexible approach for entrepreneurs and small business leaders.
Finding the right health care plan as a small business owner for health and wellness can feel like navigating a maze. Unlike large corporations with group coverage benefits, individual entrepreneurs face unique struggles, such as:
Prohibitively High Costs: Traditional health insurance premiums often take a significant chunk out of a small business budget.
Limited Flexibility: These plans typically aren't designed to adapt to the varying financial seasons of running a business.
Conflict with Christian Values: Supporting programs inconsistent with biblical teachings can leave many uneasy.
These obstacles can leave entrepreneurs feeling stuck. Fortunately, Medi Share tackles these issues head-on, combining affordability, adaptability, and spiritual alignment.
Medi-Share is a Christian health care sharing ministry that allows members to come together as a community to share medical costs and medical burdens. Medi-Share is not insurance. Guided by the biblical principle of bearing one another’s burdens, Medi-Share operates as an alternative to other health care options. Every member contributes monthly shares to support others in the community with eligible medical expenses, creating a foundation of trust, stewardship, compassion, and health care sharing.
Here’s how Medi-Share works:
After an Annual Household Portion (AHP)—the Medi-Share equivalent of a deductible—is met, medical bills that qualify are shared among the community, often amounting to significant sums of dollars.
Members make monthly contributions (or "shares") based on factors such as household size and age.
After an Annual Household Portion (AHP)—the Medi-Share equivalent of a deductible—is met, medical bills that qualify are shared among the community.
Members can access a network of over 1M trusted health care providers from Medi-Share's broad network of professionals.
This approach ensures that health care bills are paid while adhering to principles rooted in faith and biblical stewardship.
Medi-Share for small businesses offers a seamless blend of affordability, flexibility, and foundational Christian values. Here are a few key reasons it makes sense for small business owners:
