Holistic-Friendly Healthcare Program

The Holistic Chamber of Commerce’s
Partnership With MPB.Health
Our Partnership
The Holistic Chamber of Commerce and MPB.Health have partnered to provide an attractively-priced product that can significantly reduce total healthcare costs for those who use holistic services and elect to become members of one of these programs. These programs combine medical cost sharing to mitigate and control the cost of large medical expenses with a variety of other programs described below.
Different programs are available for individuals, individual proprietors, and 1099 contractors who want to purchase individual programs; and to employers who want to establish group plans.
Alternative Medical Treatments And Medical Tourism
Zion Health provides the medical cost sharing portion of these programs. Zion’s medical cost sharing guidelines state that “Alternative treatments can be shared with the Zion Health community. These alternatives generally should be considered safe and effective while being an alternative to a traditional treatment plan. Needs may be considered shareable pending prior written approval by Zion Health. The member is required to demonstrate the proposed value of the alternative treatment.”
Treatment plans can be submitted by any provider who is licensed to practice medicine in the state. Accordingly, if they are licensed in the state, naturopaths, acupuncturists, Doctors of Oriental Medicine, homeopaths, and chiropractors can submit treatment plans. Allopathic integrative medicine physicians can also submit treatment plans proposing the use of alternative medicine approaches.
Zion Health is uniquely positioned among all other medical cost sharing organizations (as well as almost all individual and family health insurance plans) to approve payment for alternative treatments under their sharing guidelines. Members are permitted to choose between Zion Health-approved alternative treatments and allopathic treatments.
Zion will also consider approving the use of medical tourism either in the United States or internationally. Zion must approve the treatment plan and must be convinced of the safety of the proposed procedure and of the provider. Any medical tourism requests are handled on a case-by-case basis by Zion.
In addition, the Whole Health Living Choices component of the program provides discounts for complementary and alternative medicine practitioners and nutritional products.
Who We Are And What We Do

Note: While the federal penalty for not having a plan that meets Affordable Care Act requirements was eliminated January 1, 2019, five jurisdictions—California, District of Columbia, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Rhode Island—have state penalties for not having plans that meet ACA requirements. The Secure plan meets all state requirements and eliminates any tax penalties.
We’re committed to helping people live longer, healthier, happier lives through a holistic, balanced approach to their health. We believe health is encompassed in all aspects of life: physical emotional, social, and financial. Through inexpensive alternatives that don’t compromise quality, we provide the tools, services, and solutions to make this happen and empower our members to become informed consumers.
