THF Collaborates with Medi-Share, the Largest HCSM, for Korean Community
With about 25 years of experience in the insurance and healthcare field, the board members of THF Ministry have recognized the importance of patient advocacy for those who have a language barrier and cultural differences, especially those who are categorized as low-income, and have consistently helped fellow Christian Korean immigrants for many years. As executives of a health care sharing ministry, THF Ministry board members saw first-hand how difficult it is to overcome a language barrier for Korean-speaking members when medical needs occur and how it caused members to have limited access to healthcare and develop financial crises. Also, the lack of knowledge and available information regarding the hospital system is a tremendous burden to these members with cultural differences.
Health care sharing ministries are organizations in which healthcare costs are shared among members with common ethical or religious beliefs. There are many HCSMs that are committed to honoring God and providing distinguished services to access quality healthcare. However, only a few of these HCSMs are providing its services in Korean. Korean immigrants who have a language barrier and Korean-speaking members of HCSMs do not have a freedom of choice in regards to choosing quality healthcare when the need occurs.
Medi-Share is the nation’s largest health care sharing ministry with over 400,000 members and 900,000 participating medical providers. Furthermore, Medi-Share serves fellow Christians with high ministry standards, accountability and transparency. THF Ministry is helping Korean Americans who have language barrier to receive affordable and reliable healthcare through partnership with Medi-Share. THF Ministry helps Korean Americans sign up Medi-Share by providing membership registration guides in Korean. THF Ministry reduces miscommunication/misunderstanding between Medi-Share and its members and improves the overall satisfaction of the Korean-speaking members. Medi-Share and THF work together to bring good news of health care sharing ministry and God’s kingdom will multiply among Christian Korean Americans. God will be honored by his children’s good work!
