CANTON,
Ohio, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Liberty
HealthShare®, one of the country's leading Christian
healthsharing ministries, today announced that it has enhanced its
Liberty Assist sharing program.
Liberty HealthShare's Liberty Assist
sharing program is now an even greater value for seniors on
Medicare.
Liberty Assist was introduced in September 2022 to serve seniors on Medicare. The
budget-friendly sharing program has proven popular with its age 65+
audience.
The popularity of the easy-to-use program designed for seniors
enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B is expected to grow as Liberty
HealthShare has added several free features to the program to help
members maintain good health and well-being.
"With monthly sharing contributions starting at just
$87, Liberty Assist is affordable for
retirees looking to control their healthcare expenses and enjoy the
benefits of being a healthshare member," said Dorsey Morrow, Liberty HealthShare chief
executive officer.
Beginning June 1, these new
features will be available to Liberty Assist members at no
additional cost:
- GetMoreRx Prescription Drugs – Offers savings of
50% - 95% on generic drugs and 10% - 45% on most brand name
drugs.
- Careington Dental – Offers savings of 20% - 50%
through one of the nation's largest dental networks.
- EyeMed Vision – Offers savings of 20% - 40% off the
retail price of eyewear.
- QualSight LASIK – Offers savings of 20% - 30% off
the national average cost of LASIK surgery.
- DialCare Urgent Care – An easy-to-use telemedicine
solution for non-emergency illnesses and general care.
- DialCare Therapy – A safe and secure mental
wellness program via virtual or telephonic counseling
sessions.
While all of these program features are offered at no charge,
for DialCare Urgent Care telemedicine, a Liberty Assist member will
pay a per-visit fee of $55, and
$85 per-visit for Dialcare Therapy, a
telecounseling service. More information is available at
libertyhealthshare.org/additional-services. These features are not
insurance and are not available in Washington or Vermont.
"Our members appreciate knowing that they can see the doctor of
their choice and that Liberty Assist will fill in the gaps of what
Medicare doesn't pay," said Morrow. "They enjoy being a part of a
Christian sharing community instead of contributing to the profits
of a big insurance company."
In addition to Liberty Assist, Liberty HealthShare has five
other affordable medical cost sharing programs that are designed to
fit the needs of individuals as well as different types and sizes
of families.
Liberty Freedom is a budget-friendly, catastrophic healthcare
cost-sharing program for young adults. With a monthly share of just
$89 for an individual, Liberty
Freedom offers support to those age 35 and younger for their
eligible healthcare expenses.
The three core Liberty HealthShare sharing programs, Liberty
Unite, Liberty Connect, and Liberty Essential, are excellent for
singles, couples, and families. Sharing programs for singles are
available with a monthly share of just $163. For couples, monthly shares start at
$266. Family programs start at
$513 per month. These programs
include both urgent care and mental wellness telehealth visits
along with discounts for prescription drugs, dental care,
vision care, and even LASIK surgery.
Liberty Rise is a sharing program
for young adults without children, ages 18-29, starting out on
their own or still in college. Its monthly share amount is just
$122.
Liberty HealthShare launched a new dental sharing program
on May 1. With monthly share amounts
as low as $35, it allows members to
see the licensed dentist of their choice without any network
restrictions.
As Liberty HealthShare is not insurance, enrollment is available
year-round with no requirement for special life events to qualify.

Liberty HealthShare is a non-profit 501(c) (3) charitable
Christian medical cost-sharing ministry focused on members helping

Liberty HealthShare is not an insurance company nor is it
offered through an insurance company. Liberty HealthShare's Sharing
Programs do not guarantee or promise that a member's medical bills
will be paid or assigned to others for payment. Whether anyone
chooses to pay a member's medical bills will be totally voluntary.
As such, Liberty HealthShare's Sharing Programs should never be
considered as a substitute for an insurance policy. Whether a
member receives any payments for medical expenses and whether or
not Liberty HealthShare continues to operate, the member is always
liable for any unpaid bills.
