#Healthcaresharingministries are #taxexempt #religious organizations that pretend to offer products better than real #healthinsurance, with promises of low costs and caring for the “whole person.” These ministries have zero obligation to reimburse any #medicalexpenses. The result is families surprised with steep #medicaldebt, confusing limitations, and curt responses to their pleas for help.

Having a #baby? Good luck if you rely on a #Christian "#healthcare sharing #ministry"
