Today, Radical Personal Finance, Part 5 of our Health Insurance Series.

Today we tackle Healthcare Sharing Ministries.

These are not health insurance options, but they are fantastic competition to health insurance.

It's my personal choice for how I choose to pay for the health care costs for my family.

And today I'm going to share with you a little bit of background on health care sharing ministries

and as well as my own experience and give you some suggestions as to how you can investigate these

options for yourself. Welcome to Radical Personal Finance, the show dedicated to providing you with the knowledge,

skills, insight, and encouragement you need to live a rich and meaningful life now while building a plan for financial

freedom in 10 years or less. My name is Joshua Sheets. I hope you enjoy bringing the music back.

I didn't banish the music from the show. I really like it. In fact, I'm getting in a better mood right ministries and I've referenced this so throughout

this series that we've been working on with regard

to how to pay for your health costs.

To refresh your memory this is now part five of that series we began with a discussion of health insurance the use of

to talk about primary focus of us which has been the Affordable Care Act

legislation I shared with you in part two why I personally oppose the Affordable Care Act and kind of some of

the ideological background to that. In first in part one I gave you some of my

insight and just suggestions and how to approach health

insurance as well.

In part three of the show, we talked about the premium tax credit, what it is, how it works,

and how to maximize your cash from it.
