Hi, I’m Peter!

Today, we are asking...

Is Your Health Insurance Too Expensive?

We are a couple of months into the new year and your health insurance for 2020… and those high insurance premiums might be starting to bother you! 

Is there another way, you ask? 

Can my health needs be covered without literally charging me an arm and a leg?!?


Answer: 

YES, Health Sharing Plans provide excellent coverage for half the cost! 

Wait… so what is a “health sharing plan”? 

Health Sharing Plans are not technically “insurance” but they work in a similar way! 

Health Sharing Plans are FOR YOU if: 

  • You don't want to pay the extremely high monthly premiums for traditional healthcare. 

  • Your income is too high to be eligible for federal tax credits

  • You don't have chronic pre-existing conditions, expensive prescriptions, or pregnancy and you are a low cancer risk and don't need surgery immediately.


How Health Sharing Plans Work

  • It provides a health care plan that is very similar to traditional healthcare

  • Monthly premiums (much lower than other insurance)

  • Access to a large network of doctors and specialists and hospitals. 

  • It uses the large PHCS PPO Network (MultiPlan) that has hundreds of local doctors — about the same size as the BlueShield PPO network. 

  • Access to "tele-med" phone calls for health support and advice. 

  • They give you a “safe harbor” exemption from the 2020 state tax penalty for health insurance.

  • Low Co-pays and deductibles

  • It has some restrictions on pre-existing conditions and some upper limits of financial coverage. 

  • There is a two month waiting period on voluntary surgical procedures, and a three month wait for cancer treatments, but emergencies are covered immediately. 

  • There may be a small application fee

  • You pay for prescription drugs on your own (see the links below to save)



Health Sharing Plans don’t meet all the requirements of the Affordable Care Act, but they just might be what’s most “affordable for you and your family!” 

Health Sharing Plans provide you with a vast network of hospitals and doctors and pay for your medical bills, just like traditional insurance!
