“…Sedera’s help in finding the best cost on treatment and prescriptions resulted in one employee paying a tenth of what they were paying monthly with our insurer’s prescription benefit program.”
“Now having entered our third year with Sedera, I can confidently say Sedera is an excellent option to help drive down healthcare costs for my business and employees, while providing a high-quality healthcare solution.”
“After years of dealing with insurance companies, we finally have someone on our side who is looking out for our best interests.”
“I told the doctor my symptoms, then he prescribed an antibiotic and a steroid to control my coughing. An hour later the prescription was at my local pharmacy.”
Who We Are
Sedera is a Medical Cost Sharing Community inspired by the modern sharing economy. Our non-insurance Community is centered on a commitment to healthy living and sharing the cost of medical care. In doing so, we provide access to quality health care at affordable prices for our Members and their families. While we are built on Christian principles, our Members do not have to be affiliated with a religious group – all are welcome.
What We Do
We help businesses take a new approach to health care for their employees. Our model is built on a 30-year legacy of the Medical Cost Sharing industry and borrows from the best innovations of the modern sharing economy.
We invite our Members to be active and engaged participants in their health care. We ask them to commit to pursuing a healthy lifestyle. Together, we are building a new kind of community, one centered on healthy living and sharing the cost of medical care. In doing so, we are able to provide a high-end health care experience, delivering tremendous value for Members and their families.
How it Works
Members contribute a fixed amount per month to participate in the sharing Community. When an individual has a medical Need, the Sedera Community steps in to ensure the Need is met.
A “Need” is one or more medical expenses caused by an accident or illness.
Members first meet an Initial Unshareable Amount (IUA) up to $500-$5000 according to their membership type. After an individual’s third medical Need (fifth Need when a family is participating), costs are fully shared within the Community.
Why it’s Better
The Medical Cost Sharing industry is growing quickly, with one million Members nationwide accessing one billion dollars in sharing.
Our Members reduce medical costs through smart choices about diet, exercise, and lifestyle. Through honoring these requirements and through proven provider negotiation, our cost sharing model provides Members with high-end services while lowering monthly expenses and out-of-pocket costs. Members have the freedom to choose their own doctor, visit well-regarded medical providers and typically still see that the total cost of health care is 30-50% less.
Who We Are
Sedera Health is a medical cost sharing community inspired by the modern sharing economy. Our non-insurance community is centered on a commitment to healthy living and sharing the cost of medical care. In doing so, we are able to provide high end healthcare for members and their families at a more affordable price than conventional health insurance. While we’re built on Christian principles, our members do not have to be affiliated with a religious group – all are welcome.
What We Do
Healthcare sharing is the sharing of funds between members with medical “Needs.” Members share in each other’s healthcare Needs and encourage each other along the way.
Community members assume responsibility for meeting each others’ needs, putting the “care” back in healthcare and removing the influence of faceless insurance companies.
How it Works
Members pay a fixed amount per month to participate in the sharing network, akin to a premium from an insurance company. When an individual has a medical need, the Sedera community steps in to ensure they are taken care of.
A “Need” is one or more medical expenses caused by a single accident or illness.
Members first meet an Initial Unshareable Amount (IUA) up to $500 or $1000. Then, the costs of addressing up to three medical needs (five Needs when a family is participating) are shared among the community.
Why It’s Better
Healthcare sharing is growing quickly, with one million members nationwide accessing one billion dollars in sharing.
Our members reduce healthcare costs through smart choices about diet, exercise and lifestyle. Sedera members commit to
- No use of illegal narcotics.
- No driving while intoxicated.
- Tobacco users are required to pay extra (details here).
By honoring these requirements, our cost sharing model provides members with high-end services while lowering monthly expenses and out-of-pocket costs. Members have the freedom to choose the best doctor for their condition, and typically visit well-regarded medical professionals at 25-50% the cost.
