These plans are an alternative to healthcare insurance, and some of them may not be on the up and up.

Be interesting to see who gets money from insurance providers and how that lines up with the decision makers.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

 I've seen those things advertised for years.  I've wondered how the heck they work.

Apparently they don't.

Medi-share is the one I hear advertised on right wing radio all the time.

I briefly looked into them out of curiosity a couple years ago.

Pretty straight forward and mostly good reviews. Not a great option for those with pre existing options though.

Once I move and no longer have my current gig I’ll look at them again, assuming they haven’t been regulated out of existence.
