{Frankfort,
Kentucky}…Last month, Franklin County Circuit Judge Thomas Wingate concluded that
Florida-based Medi-Share, a Christians-only health insurance program, doesn't
comply with Kentucky Department of Insurance regulations and won't be allowed
to operate in the state after January 1st, leaving some 800 Kentuckians looking
elsewhere for coverage. Medi-Share spokeswoman Amy Huffman says one suggestion
is that they consider Samaritan Ministries, an Illinois-based cost-sharing
ministry that remains in good standing in Kentucky . Huffman says Medi-Share
recommended that its members consider medical coverage from secular health insurance
companies as well.
