How is Medi-Share biblical?
Medi-share is indeed a unique program for providing assistance with medical care, but unlike health insurance programs this route uses blatant discrimination to prevent certain individuals from benefiting from its service. Mychristiancare.org specifically points out that only those engaging in sexual intercourse within a “Christian” marriage are allowed to join. This immediately eliminates gay, lesbian, and transgender individuals from enrolling in Medi-share. The program also places limits on services it covers based upon religious beliefs and states specifically that abortions will not be covered under any circumstance.
Medi-Share is also mentioned in these articles as well .

A. In the early days of the Church, Christians took care of each other. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Hebrews 13:16 Mutual care was simply a way of life. Christians continued to care for each other well into the twentieth century, but after World War II, government programs and insurance companies assumed the role previously played by the Church. As medical costs soared, many churches found they lacked the resources to care for their members. Christians view not-for-profit ministries like Medi-Share as a way to reclaim their biblical mandate to care and provide for their brothers and sisters in Christ.
