Our biblical community of members in the United States and around the world &#8220;<a href=\"\/glossary\/#sharing-participation-level\">share<\/a>&#8221; (voluntarily pay) each other\u2019s eligible medical bills through monthly contributions.<\/p>\n<p>The powerful outcome is that members have taken care of over $13 billion in medical bills while keeping participation costs low.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">What are the programs and cost to participate in CHM? How often is the cost raised?<\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>Christian Healthcare Ministries offers four programs: CHM Gold ($299 per unit, per month), CHM Silver ($169 per unit, per month), CHM Bronze ($115 per unit, per month), and SeniorShare\u2122 ($119 per unit, per month). CHM Plus is for catastrophic medical bills and is an optional (but highly recommended) add-on with a monthly cost of $42 per unit. For more information, visit our <a href=\"\/programs\/\">programs page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While it&#8217;s impossible to predict our members&#8217; future health, well-being, and medical costs, we keep our monthly contribution amounts as low as possible. We evaluate the cost of sharing medical bills regularly to make sure that CHM is taking care of our members in a timely manner. Our record shows that we are meeting this goal despite rising medical costs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">What kind of bills are eligible for sharing?<\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>The eligibility of any bill is ultimately determined by the CHM <a href=\"\/chm-guidelines\/\">Guidelines<\/a> and the member&#8217;s program when the signs or symptoms began.<\/p>\n<p>CHM has a maximum lifetime limit of $125,000 for each illness (exception: congenital birth defects) that qualifies according to CHM Guidelines. For information about health cost support of up to $1 million per illness or more, see the <a href=\"\/chm-guidelines\/\">Guidelines<\/a> about CHM Plus.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">How does CHM work for families?<\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM) is perfect for growing families. We use a unit system. A <a href=\"\/glossary#unit\">unit<\/a> is a participating individual within a membership. A single person is one unit, a married couple is two units (any two individuals must be two units), and a family is three units, regardless of the number of dependent children. Each unit can participate in different programs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Single-parent households:<\/strong> If you are legally and financially responsible for a child or children, your membership will be in two units (the parent is the first unit, and all children are the second unit).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Households with one participating spouse:<\/strong> If one spouse is a CHM member and the other spouse chooses not to be a member, the participating spouse is one CHM unit, and all dependent children are an additional unit (a total of two units).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adult children:<\/strong> Adult children can be a part of your membership until they are 26 as long as they meet all the qualifications required to remain a dependent. Please see the <a href=\"https:\/\/chministries.org\/chm-guidelines\/\">CHM Guidelines<\/a> for membership qualifications for adult children.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adopted children:<\/strong> When a CHM member adopts a child or otherwise has obtained legal custody with legal responsibility for a child&#8217;s medical care, that child can be included in their CHM membership. If any other source is responsible, willing, or available to pay the child&#8217;s medical bills, these resources must be exhausted before CHM members can share bills. CHM cannot share bills for adoption expenses or any medical expenses incurred before you become legally and financially responsible for the child, nor can we share any birth expenses for an adopted child.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">What is a pre-existing condition? Are bills from my pre-existing condition eligible for sharing? <\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>At CHM, we define a <a href=\"\/glossary\/#pre-existing-condition\">pre-existing<\/a> condition as any medical condition for which you experience signs, symptoms, testing, or treatment before joining CHM, regardless of whether you have received a diagnosis. (Routine or maintenance medications are considered treatment.)<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you have a stent inserted for a heart condition, the stent is considered treatment, and your heart condition is pre-existing.<\/p>\n<p>CHM considers a condition no longer pre-existing if you have experienced one year without signs, symptoms, or treatment (including no maintenance medication) for that condition and your official medical records document it. In contrast, cancer is no longer pre-existing if, after your doctor has pronounced you cancer-free, you have gone five years without any signs, symptoms, testing, or treatment (other than routine, follow-up appointments).<\/p>\n<p>CHM shares eligible costs for maintained pre-existing conditions. For detailed information regarding pre-existing conditions, see the <a href=\"https:\/\/chministries.org\/chm-guidelines\/\">CHM Guidelines<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">How long does it take CHM to share my medical costs? <\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>In general, eligible medical bills are shared by CHM members in the order CHM receives them. The sharing &#8220;clock&#8221; starts on the date that our offices receive medical bills and all necessary forms. Most medical bills are shared in 60 &#8211; 75 days. However, this is not a guarantee. In rare instances, it can take longer if CHM is waiting on members or healthcare providers to submit necessary information.<\/p>\n<p>Medical bills must be submitted within six months from the date of service. The sooner CHM receives members&#8217; medical bills, the sooner staff can put them in the queue for medical bill processing.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend not paying upfront for medical bills at the time of treatment. Members should ask medical providers to bill them directly and set up a payment plan as needed until CHM completes the sharing process.

CHM members share eligible maternity bills up to $125,000 (or an unlimited amount when also a member of CHM Plus) per pregnancy for prenatal care, delivery, home births, midwives, postnatal care, and birth complications.<\/p>\n<p>If a member joins CHM while pregnant, CHM cannot share bills for that pregnancy or any related complications. Members must have a due date for delivery at least 300 days after joining for bills to be eligible for sharing. Members can receive a $500 credit towards your maternity PR by calling CHM within the first sixteen weeks of pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about special CHM offerings, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/chministries.org\/chm-perks\/\">CHM Care Solutions.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">Do you offer a telemedicine service?<\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>Through CHM&#8217;s Virtual Care Solution, CHM members can connect with doctors through video visits.<\/p>\n<p>This service is included as a part of CHM membership, offering quick access to licensed physicians seven days a week.

Additionally, members must follow biblical principles concerning the use of alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>If you live outside of the U.S., you can still join CHM. However, please note that CHM members must have access to a U.S. mailing address or reliable internet service capable of receiving documents with confidential information. CHM cannot send funds outside the U.S.; CHM members must translate all bills submitted into English and convert their bills to U.S. dollars.<\/p>\n<p>Many members use CHM above and beyond their Medicare coverage.

Our Prayers Unceasing program provides members the opportunity to put faith into action by strengthening brothers and sisters in Christ by lifting them in prayer and sending them cards, letters, or emails of encouragement.<\/p>\n<p>CHM staff also pray daily for members, especially those who have submitted prayer requests by mail, email, or phone. Many staff members are prayer warriors available to pray with you over the phone at your request.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">What is the overall financial health of CHM?<\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>We have a very healthy ministry, which is proven by other third-party evaluations. Over $13 billion have been satisfied in medical bills since 1981. CHM&#8217;s administrative costs as a nonprofit are under 10%, which is low for our industry. Additionally, CHM earned a first-in-the-nation independent accreditation by Demotech in 30 areas of financial and operational <a href=\"\/accreditations\/\">standards and accountability<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion-item\"><div class=\"title\">Can you be penalized for using CHM instead of health insurance?<\/div><div class=\"content\"><p>Since CHM qualifies as a religious exemption under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), CHM members aren\u2019t penalized; however, some states require additional documentation during tax season to confirm penalty exemptions.
