Bills, yes, but also ‘warmth, support, caring, prayer’

A Samaritan member who blogs at Samaritan Ministries Review (which is not affiliated with SMI) recently wrote about their experiences dealing with medical bills. The post points out that Samaritan contracts with The Karis Group and other negotiators in an effort to get fair prices on medical expenses for members. The writer concludes with these thoughts:

If we have a medical need, the bills are unavoidable; insurance or not. Comparing the two, I’d MUCH rather have the support of Samaritan Ministries and its members than our old insurance company. Instead of cold rules and high out of pocket costs, I have traded it for warmth, support, caring, and prayer from an organization who just wants to be sure the bills are paid and that none of us are overcharged. Samaritan strives to follow the laws of Christ. Anytime you have that as your foundation you know you’re on solid ground.
