Independent accreditation protects you<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

In order to accomplish our mission of glorifying God through service to our members, we believe Christian Healthcare Ministries, Inc., (the Ministry) must be accountable and transparent and must avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety in all its operations, communications, and dealings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The facts are clear: independent accreditation stands apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A ministry or organization is legitimately accredited if it passes an intense, comprehensive operational review by a reliable, third-party body of experts. The tougher the accreditation review for health cost sharing ministries, the better it is for the people it serves.<\/strong> That\u2019s why we prioritized, sought, and earned the first and only independent accreditation in the nation for health cost sharing ministries. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why integrity matters<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Integrity goes beyond just \u201cdoing the right thing.\u201d It\u2019s an intentional choice to take ethical, virtuous actions that serve members and honor God. It\u2019s at the heart of who we are, and what we do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether it be through independent accreditation, important legislature, financial analysis, or innovative best practices, our actions fulfill our mission with integrity. As we bear each other\u2019s healthcare burdens, we make a difference in the lives of brothers and sisters in Christ.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

How we’re leading the industry<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

As America\u2019s first and longest-serving health cost sharing ministry, we make choices that prioritize integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why we earned third-party accreditation from Demotech, a financial analysis firm that principally serves insurance companies by providing Financial Stability Ratings\u00ae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demotech developed its Faith-based Sharing Review\u2122 (Fb<\/sup>SR) program to assess HCSMs in 30 different areas of financial and organizational operation. CHM scored 97 out of a possible 100 points on the Fb<\/sup>SR and was the first health cost sharing ministry in the nation to do so. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our actions don\u2019t stop there. We consistently exceed industry standards:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
