About The Corinthian Plan
The Corinthian Plan is a self-funded, church plan, sponsored and owned by Mennonite Church USA. Everence works with enrollment, policy and financial administration. Highmark (Blue Cross Blue Shield) provides the service network, works with claims and provides other health resources. The Corinthian Plan is overseen by the Church Benefits Board, which is appointed by MC USA.
Our mutual aid practices reflect those of the early church as described in 2 Corinthians 8-9 and help to ensure that health care is accessible to all participants. The Corinthian Plan does not exclude pastors or church workers because of specific health reasons. Subsidies are available to help congregations who otherwise could not afford coverage.
