About Christian Healthcare Ministries

CHM is about more than just financial support. Members and staff pray with you and serve you—as Christians supporting Christians. CHM members have helped encourage believers and share eligible medical bills since 1981.

When you get a monthly billing statement, you’ll also get a prayer request from another member (or family). You can pray for them or send cards of encouragement through CHM's spiritual support program, Prayers Unceasing.

Christian Healthcare Ministries is a biblical alternative to health insurance. CHM is the nation’s first health cost sharing ministry and they’re still sharing medical bills over 40 years later. Plus, they’re an eligible option under the healthcare law (so yep—they’re legal).
