Tax Relief: Health Care Sharing Ministry Membership as Medical Expense.
New rules allow deducting contributions to health care sharing ministries as medical expenses for tax purposes. This means individuals participating in these programs can reduce their taxable income, potentially leading to lower taxes. These changes will take effect starting from the 2026 tax year.
Key points
Membership fees for health care sharing ministries will be treated as medical expenses, allowing for tax deductions.
Health care sharing ministries will no longer be considered health plans or insurance for tax purposes.
These changes will apply to tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.
