Guidelines - 1.4 Health Care Sharing in General
2026-07-01
REDEEM HealthShare designed its programs for sharing eligible
Needs related to conditions resulting from a new illness, injury, or
accident. A Need is the spiritual, emotional, physical, and financial
needs related to a medical condition or event. A Need includes all
bills that REDEEM HealthShare determines are related to the same
condition, progression of a condition, or set of symptoms. This
includes separate treatments or separate episodes of symptoms.
Note: In this document, Need is capitalized when referring to this
glossary-defined concept. Lowercase need refers to the general
English word.
To participate, you voluntarily pledge a monthly share amount
according to the age of the oldest participant on the household
membership, the sharing level, any optional programs added, and
the number of participants on the household membership.
You pay your providers from share contributions you receive
from other REDEEM HealthShare community members. Medical
bill funding does not come from REDEEM HealthShare itself and
REDEEM HealthShare is not liable for the payment of medical bills.
Members have no legal obligation to contribute toward your (or
another member’s) medical bill. It is a sharing community.
REDEEM HEALTHSHARE MINISTRY IS NOT AN INSURANCE COMPANY.
HEALTH CARE SHARING IS NOT INSURANCE OR A CONTRACT FOR
INSURANCE.
THE ASSISTANCE WITH MEDICAL BILLS BY MEMBERS THROUGH
REDEEM HEALTHSHARE MINISTRY OR OTHERWISE IS NOT
GUARANTEED IN ANY WAY.
