What Is Medical Cost Sharing?

Medical Cost Sharing

Medical cost sharing is a viable, affordable, non-insurance solution for addressing the high costs of healthcare. A community of like-minded, health conscious individuals voluntarily participate in sharing each other’s medical bills to reduce the cost of healthcare for everyone.

Virtual Health Care

All MPB.Health programs include MPB Care virtual health care provided through Cirrus MD. Cirrus MD. has recently been selected as the telemedicine provider for the Veteran’s Administration.

Features and Benefits:

Behavioral health providers are also included.

Unlike telemedicine which is a single call experience, a virtual healthcare physician has access to member medical records, and the record is ongoing for those dealing with chronic conditions.

An intuitive onboarding, detailed health questionnaire and introduction meeting with their virtual healthcare physician establishes a baseline and direction for your MPB Care journey.

Please watch these short videos to learn more about how Cirrus MD works and how it differs from other approaches to telemedicine and virtual care.

Concierge Care Team

Personalized Concierge Services

The Care Concierge Team’s job actually begins once you become a member. Their focus is holding your hand every step of the way through your healthcare journey. No question is too small or too large. They will work on finding the best possible outcome at the lowest possible price for every healthcare need you have. Their goal is to provide a level of customer service equal to or better than members of costly Concierge Medical Programs receive.

Care Concierge Team personnel conduct welcome calls for all newly enrolled members. The purpose is to ensure members understand how their program works and to help them enroll for various plan components, e.g. virtual care through Cirrus M.D., the Member Assistance Program through Mazzitti and Sullivan, and the QR Life Code and Personal Records Vault.

If a member needs help finding an in-person provider or to find lowest cost, highest quality medical services, s/he should contact the Care Concierge Team. The Care Concierge Team uses tools like the proprietary Healthcare BlueBook to help members find providers and low cost, high quality services. The Team is available from 9 AM to 8 PM EST Monday through Friday.

Membership Assistance Program

The Member Assistance Program is in addition to the Cirrus MD program and provides up to 12 free sessions per year for the services outlined in the video and text below. Each set of four sessions must be separated by a two month period; special provisions apply for California.

Focuses on eliminating many things that compromise productivity or quality of life. Includes substance abuse, ongoing depression or anxiety, financial concerns, relationship problems and more.

Members can exercise a wide range of options when it comes to partaking in the Member Assistance Program. From in-person or video-based counseling sessions to free and paid online resources and courses, the Member Assistance Program is designed for consumption using platforms and methods that can accommodate member preferences and personal schedules. Members who value in-person therapy are encouraged to take advantage of MPB.Health-sponsored sessions; conversely, members who would prefer to use substance abuse response materials can also do so from their own homes. An increase in our member's productivity inevitably follows.

No matter how you use the Member Assistance Program, the intended goals are the same: replace stress and anxiety with peace of mind, while helping cope with and overcome any number of difficult situations. The result is a group of educated, focused members eager to perform for their collective well-being.
