DISCLAIMER
To those who may be unfamiliar with the concept of people caring for one another and voluntarily sharing their medical needs: Altrua HealthShare is a medical-cost sharing membership that acts as a neutral escrow agent for the members. Our members voluntarily submit monthly contributions into an escrow account with Altrua HealthShare acting as the escrow agent between members. Many organizations like ours have been operating successfully for years. To err on the side of caution we are including the following warning for all to consider.
This publication or membership is not issued by an insurance company, nor is it offered through an insurance company. This publication or the membership does not guarantee or promise that your eligible medical needs will be shared by the membership. This publication or the membership should never be considered as a substitute for an insurance policy. If the publication or the membership is unable to share in all or part of your eligible medical needs, or whether or not this membership continues to operate, you will remain financially liable for any and all unpaid medical needs.
This is not a legally binding agreement to reimburse you for medical needs you incur, but is an opportunity for you to care for one another in a time of need, to present your medical needs to others as outlined in these membership guidelines. The financial assistance you may receive will come from other members’ monthly contributions that are placed in an escrow account, not from Altrua HealthShare.
