Health sharing ministry (Medi-Share)

$200-$600/mo

Is a Health Sharing Ministry (Medi-Share) Tax Deductible?

Short answer: Often yes: Health sharing ministry (Medi-Share) is deductible above the line for self-employed people, or as a medical expense if you itemize.

The self-employed deduction is off for months you could join an employer plan. Health sharing ministries and fixed-indemnity plans don't count as medical insurance.

Records to keep: Keep the receipt or invoice and an estimate of business-use percentage.
