Speaker 2 (02:05):
Not only is it open enrollment for a lot of people,
it's also a time you can join meta share and
save even more than usual. And it's true the typical
family switching to meta share saves five hundred bucks or
more a month, which is obviously huge for a lot
of people. But what's more, they like it. Medashare has
double the customer satisfaction rate compared to health insurance double.
There are four hundred thousand members. They've shared over four

(02:26):
billion in medical bills, and it really is a great
community to people encourage and pray for each other.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
And here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
If you join metashare complete right now, they'll waive your
new member fees and you'll save an additional ten percent
off all of twenty twenty three. That's right, no fee
to join, ten percent off every month of next year.
But it's a very limited time off where you have
to sign up before January fifteenth. Great savings, great healthcare.
