HIFU Prostate Services partners with Christian Healthcare Ministries to Make HIFU for Prostate Cancer more Accessible in US
CHARLOTTE, NC / ACCESSWIRE / January 5, 2022 / Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM), America’s first and longest-serving health cost sharing ministry, and HIFU Prostate Services, LLC (HPS) have entered into a relationship in which CHM members are automatically seen on the basis of their ministry membership rather than members making individual arrangements.
HPS and the newly FDA cleared HIFU treatment for prostate cancer will now be on CHM’s CHM-friendly provider list made available to the ministry’s members.
CHM, founded in 1981, is not insurance, but is a faith-based approach, grounded in New Testament principles, to enable its members to meet their healthcare costs. Through CHM’s program, ministry members share to pay each other’s medical bills.
The ministry began after a minister who’d lost his family and was seriously injured in a car accident sought help with his medical bills from friends and members of his congregation. The response was such that it became a ministry, and resulted in today’s CHM. Since the ministry’s founding, CHM members have shared more than $6 billion to pay each other’s medical bills.
Headquartered in Barberton, Ohio, CHM is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization serving members in all 50 states and missionaries in countries throughout the world.
CHM is a federally certified exemption to the individual mandate under the U.S. Affordable Care Act. As such, CHM is an eligible option for individuals and families under the national healthcare law.
