Trump’s Great Healthcare Plan ‘central’ to long-term policy solutions, health sharing ministry says

A health sharing ministry is expressing its support for President Donald Trump’s newly announced “Great Healthcare Plan,” stating the plan’s promise of transparency and affordability will be “central” to long-term policy solutions.

President of America’s HealthShare David Lejune told The Center Square: “While the President and GOP Leaders make good on promises to fix serious problems with a broken, woke, overly expensive health care system, private sector developments are emerging in strong support of President Trump’s – Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) initiatives.

“Transparency and affordability will be central to long-term policy solutions to America’s healthcare system,” Lejune said.

“Americans need clarity regarding their medical costs, to have direct access to affordable care, and within a system they can trust,” he added.

Lejune told The Center Square that “America’s HealthShare supports this movement by creating a community of America-loving people who deserve healthcare sovereignty and medical services that are effective, principled, affordable, and individualized.”

“People need healthcare plans that are affordable, clear about costs, and allow informed decisions – without skyrocketing premiums, surprise bills, or financial uncertainty.” Lejune said.

America’s HealthShare (AHS) is a “member-driven, free-market alternative,” its media relations told The Center Square

AHS launched in October 2025 and “allows for affordability and personalized care without funding procedures individuals may morally oppose,” The Center Square reported.

Neither traditional insurance plans UnitedHealthcare nor McKesson responded to The Center Square’s multiple individual requests for comment.

Trump’s Great Healthcare Plan was announced Thursday.

According to a White House release, the plan is intended to “slash prescription drug prices, reduce insurance premiums, hold big insurance companies accountable, and maximize price transparency in the American healthcare system.”

“This plan will deliver money directly to the American people, not insurance companies, big pharma and special interest groups – putting patients over industry leaders’ profits, just as [Trump] promised,” the release said.

Trump said he was “thrilled” to announce the plan, stating: “We will have maximum price transparency and costs will come down incredibly.”

The plan “will require any hospital or insurer who accepts Medicare or Medicaid to prominently post all prices of their place of business so that you are never surprised, and you can easily shop for a better deal or better care,” the president said.

“I’m calling on Congress to pass this framework into law without delay – we have to do it right now so that we can get immediate relief to the American people, the people I love,” Trump said.

When asked to comment on the Great Healthcare Plan, the HHS referred The Center Square to the White House and a release on the plan.

The White House has not yet responded to The Center Square’s request for comment.
