the way it works is like this, they”cover” up to 100,000.00
per “need” or illness/ accident. I believe my chemo/doctor visits cat scans etc. came to @ 36,000.00 each chemo round was 4000.00 which I think was just barely over my doc’ cost. Like I said he is a great guy!! but many providers are willing to work with you, the ministry will also negotiate a reduced price for you. And, my cancer is considered a chronic one, which might come back,so it would still be considered the same need as the 1st time I had it. which, in turn, means i only have 66,000. left to get. However, if we can pay for some of it ourselves, we don't send in every bill to be reimbursed. I think health care providers don't mind this sharing groups, cause they're getting money then and there, even if it's not as high a fee. And the more folks that join these plans, the smaller $$ amt. your monthly share would be. The principle behind Samaritan is bearing one another’s burdens. Ans we just put in our application that we do drink in moderation:)

Thanks for the info. And prayers for your continued remission of the cancer. My dad had leukimia that went into remission and he had many years of a good life before he passed away of other causes.
