How do folks feel about outfits like Liberty Health Share?
They are positioned as an alternative non-profit shared health cost collective.
I have some friends who swear by it.
- elliekelly 7y agoI just DDG’d this because it sounds like a great idea but I wouldn’t sign those “five core statements of belief, freedom, and ethics” even if it meant I’d get free healthcare. One thing I know for certain: our health insurance system needs less religious involvement if we want to fix it, not more.
- ada1981 7y agoI don’t know if the religious affiliation impacts anything about the quality of coverage, does it? But I get not wanting to sign something you don’t endorse or believe in. If this model is successful for religious folks, it seems an alternative could be made for hackers or any other group.
- elliekelly 7y agoWell historically religious organizations have resisted providing adequate coverage for women’s health. So yes, religious affiliation often does impact the quality of coverage.
- ada1981 7y agoFair enough. I’m curious to see — one of my friends is big into women’s health and she recommended it.
