Christian Care Ministry is a not-for-profit organization based in Melbourne, Florida. It was founded by Dr. E John Reinhold in 1993 as a division of the American Evangelistic Association (AEA) with the goal of providing biblical healthcare solutions for Christians.〔(American Evangelistic Association: "History of the American Evangelistic Association" )〕 The organization manages four programs centered on biblical health and wellness; Medi-Share, Manna, Healthy Church and Restore. In September 2012 the organization introduced PrayerStream, a free social networking resource that allows users to instantly share prayer requests worldwide.〔(Demoss: "Tech-Savvy Christians Track Prayers With Twitter-Like App" )〕 The organization’s main focus is their family healthcare program Medi-Share, a medical bill sharing system based on principles from the Bible as outlined in Galatians 6:2.〔(BibleGateway )〕 Medi-Share has attracted many consumers as a form of affordable healthcare that is exempt from the mandate to purchase health insurance under the Individual Mandate of the Affordable Care Act.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.irs.gov/uac/Affordable-Care-Act-Tax-Provisions )〕 With a program membership population of 151,324 as of May 2015, Christian Care Ministry currently operates in all US states except for Montana.〔(My Christian Care: "Disclosures" )〕 Since 1993, members of the organization have shared medical expenses amounting to more than $1.095 Billion.〔(Facebook: "My Christian Care" )〕 The common thread running through all of Christian Care Ministry’s programs is the emphasis on a healthy Biblical lifestyle. Christian Care Ministry is recognized by the American Heart Association as a Gold Level Fit-Friendly Company. Along with Samaritan Ministries and Christian Healthcare Ministries, Christian Care Ministry represents one of the three largest Christian healthcare sharing ministries in the U.S. == History ==
Christian Care Ministry began in 1993 when E. John Reinhold, a member of the AEA, decided to formalize the casual medical bill sharing process that existed among some of the association’s membership. Working in his garage and home, Dr. Reinhold established guidelines for the sharing of members’ medical bills. That same year, he moved his family to Melbourne, Florida, where Christian Care Ministry is still based today. The current president and CEO of Christian Care Ministry is Tony Meggs, who has led the organization since April 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://demoss.com/newsrooms/medishare/background/bio-tony-meggs/ )〕
