Wellness Mama shares her recipe for better health care
By Michael Miller · Oct 26, 2018
Katie Wells, a/k/a Wellness Mama, has been doing a stellar job of talking about Samaritan Ministries with her website’s followers lately.
First, Katie released a podcast with friend and fellow Samaritan Ministries member Heather Dessinger about how their families have changed their approaches to health care by using health care sharing and direct primary care.
It is no secret that we live in a world where we face a lot of potentially harmful things on a daily basis. From plastic exposure to all of the additives in our food system and even over-exposure to blue-light, our bodies face a lot each day.
These, and many other factors, may help explain why we’re seeing such a drastic rise in so many challenging health conditions that don’t respond to a simple cause>symptom>treatment medical model. In this Saunacast, Katie and Heather Dessinger share how they (and their families) have both faced unconventional health problems and the great lengths (and expense) it took to find results.
After explaining their forays into the DPC (or concierge) medical model and how it has helped their two families, Katie and Heather talk about “the other piece that made their plan work”: health care sharing.
In a new blog post, Katie talks about why she and her husband chose Samaritan.
This could be a really short post since the answer is: because Samaritan Ministries health care sharing works so much better for our family and we save so much money (especially because we use natural remedies and don’t run to the doctor for minor stuff). For our family, the combination of this and concierge medicine has made a huge difference for our finances and the quality of care we receive.
She then explains in greater depth what her family likes about being health care sharing ministry members as well as some things that people considering the option should be aware of. Finally, she gives an example of how SMI worked for them when her husband’s appendix burst.
Katie then wraps up the post by asking:
Are you a member of a health care sharing or healthshare ministry like Samaritan Ministries? What has your experience been? If you’re not, would you consider joining?
So if you’d like to help get the word out about your experiences with health care sharing through Samaritan, go here and comment, and share the post with your social networks!
Thanks, Katie!
