At ShareWELL, a Sharing Request is much more than just paying a claim. It is a true Advocacy approach that is designed to effectively use a self-pay method in the healthcare system to benefit each member of the ShareWELL community. Transitioning from traditional insurance to our Health Share model requires a shift in mindset, but it’s a change that brings numerous benefits. Unlike the expensive and mundane system of paying claims that only benefits large companies, our approach focuses on truly supporting our members and relieving the financial burden of medical bills.
Advocacy For You
A sharing request with ShareWELL is conducted in a variety of ways, all designed to support you as a self-pay patient. When considering the provider, hospital, and bill for each patient, it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach. The ShareWELL team is trained experts who can help you apply the best method to your situation to determine the best outcome.
Another significant advantage of ShareWELL is our ability to negotiate medical bills. Unlike insurance companies, which have pre-arranged agreements with in-network providers, ShareWELL takes a more proactive approach. Our team, including attorneys specializing in healthcare, works directly with providers to achieve fair pricing and quick payment. This negotiation is not the typical back-and-forth you might expect; it’s about establishing a fair rate from the start. Surprisingly, self-pay rates often turn out to be more favorable than those negotiated by insurance companies.
Prompt Pay Discounts
One of the most effective ways to lower medical bills is through prompt pay discounts. By arranging prepayment before services are provided, ShareWELL helps you secure the lowest possible prices. This strategy is effective not only for planned procedures but also for bills received after an emergency visit, such as an ER visit. Quick payment benefits everyone involved, including your provider, who can avoid the costs and efforts associated with chasing payments.
Educated Consumers and Tailored Solutions
The best solution for managing healthcare expenses is an educated consumer. At ShareWELL, we believe in using the right tool for the right situation rather than relying on traditional methods. Each healthcare provider, hospital, and bill might require a different approach. ShareWELL equips you with a variety of tools and strategies, ensuring you’re prepared for any situation.
A Sharing Request with ShareWELL is not just about paying a claim—it’s about leveraging a comprehensive support system to manage healthcare expenses effectively. By embracing this innovative approach, you can navigate the complexities of healthcare with confidence, knowing that ShareWELL is here to help every step of the way.
