Thank you for bringing the information of mutual aid societies to FR.

I have a question, are the mutual aid societies compliant with healthcare plan standards for ACA?

I really dislike having to ask the question as it makes an impression that Obamacare’s existence is acknowledged and its mandate is allowed to broach our daily thoughts.

But if there’s any means possible to avoid or negate the effects of this horror of government mandated healthcare, then I will invest whatever it takes to make people aware that they can be independent of this government healthcare fiasco.

From the article:

The service “even satisfies the Federal health care law’s (Affordable Care Act) requirement that you have insurance or pay a penalty-tax (see 26 United States Code Section 5000A, (d), (2), (B)).”

The health sharing ministries are a specific carve out under the ACA. The greatest problem for consumers is that the rules of the Affordable Care Act deny the same exemption to any new mutual aid societies or health ministries, or even those founded after 2000.
