If you’ve heard about United Refuah but never quite figured out how it works, start here!
Have you been hearing about United Refuah for years, but have just been too overwhelmed by the details to make the switch? As we’ve shared here before, it’s a simple concept that makes so much sense. With United Refuah, members help share in one another’s eligible medical expenses through monthly contributions. How much you pay depends on your membership size.
Back when United Refuah HealthShare first launched eight years ago, we shared our positive experiences being part of it during the early stages. Now it’s time for another update!
Yes, It’s Different Than Insurance
Being part of a health share is very different than traditional health insurance! Even if you’re unsatisfied with your health insurance (and we know that so many of you are), a health share still feels like a big leap. There’s a lot to understand, and of course, you have questions.
First, Know That You Can Be Confident
We’ve been with United Refuah since its inception. At first, we weren’t sure it would work, but time and again, they’ve exceeded our expectations. The process is smooth and simple, their payment system works beautifully, and whenever something more complicated comes up, their team is there to guide us every step of the way.
With the trust of so many behind them- over the past eight years, United Refuah has exploded! Membership has doubled in the past 20 months alone, and they’ve continued to expand their sharing allowances.
And they’re not slowing down. Starting in 2027, United Refuah is increasing its per-incident sharing limit from $1 million to $1.5 million, expanding wellness sharing, adding a new annual skin-check allowance, and making dental sharing more flexible. Their Preferred Provider program is also growing, giving members another way to access eligible care with a low, flat check-in fee and without the usual PreShare or CoShare responsibility. Their clients asked, and they listened!
With all these changes and additions, monthly contributions will be adjusted starting January 1, 2027, which is their first price increase, ever!
By now, being part of United Refuah isn’t revolutionary anymore. It’s a go-to for people who are looking for a way to keep their healthcare costs down while maintaining a high standard of care.
Beyond the Medical Expenses–Behind UR Are Real People There to Help You
United Refuah does more than just sharing medical costs. Their goal is to help their members stay healthy! So members have access to health coaching, 24/7 telehealth, mental health services, and a case management team that can help them navigate the healthcare system. So whatever your need is, whether it’s a specialist or an MRI or just have health-related questions, their team helps you understand your options.
No Time is Better Than Now
Some of us have been part of United Refuah since the beginning, we’ve seen how it works, and we’re happy to continue to be part of it going forward. It just gets better with time.
