WHAT IS
HEALTH SHARING?

There are several terms used to describe health sharing. Some of the most popular are healthcare sharing, Christian medical sharing and medical cost-sharing. But make no mistake. Whatever you call it, health sharing is not insurance.


Liberty HealthShare is a non-profit 501(c)(3) Christian healthcare sharing ministry where members can choose to voluntarily share one another’s medical expenses. It’s for people who desire more affordable healthcare, want the freedom to control their care and share Christian values.

LIBERTY HEALTHSHARE VS TRADITIONAL HEALTHCARE

Health sharing keeps you in control. You can choose any doctor. You freely decide share amounts. You have the power to determine what’s best for you and your family.
