Laborer Deserves His Wages Initiative

Faithful medicine deserves fair compensation.

This initiative works to reform medical billing systems that undervalue pro-life health care — ensuring that ethical medicine remains sustainable.

Restoring Justice in Healthcare Economics

There is a profound injustice in modern healthcare payment systems — one that few people realize.
Pro-life medical services are reimbursed by insurers at a fraction of the rate paid for unethical procedures.
For example:

  • Abortion pill reversal is often not reimbursed at all, while abortion is lucrative.
  • Restorative reproductive medicine receives minimal coverage, while IVF is well-funded and heavily promoted.

These disparities make it difficult for Catholic and pro-life clinicians to sustain their practices while remaining faithful to their values.

At MyCatholicDoctor, the Laborer Deserves His Wages Initiative exists to change that.

Why This Matters

When ethical medicine is systematically underpaid, moral healthcare disappears.
To protect the future of pro-life care in America, we must ensure that the laborer — the faithful doctor, nurse, and counselor — receives just wages.

This initiative helps build a sustainable foundation for the entire Catholic medical movement, ensuring that truth and justice guide both our medicine and our economics.

Our Mission: Faithful Work, Fair Pay

Our mission statement comes from Luke 10:9 — “Cure the sick who are there, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’”
But this initiative takes inspiration from the verse just before it:

“The laborer deserves his wages.” — Luke 10:7

We cannot scale pro-life healthcare in America unless faithful clinicians are compensated fairly for their labor.
This initiative advocates for policy reform, insurance code updates, and data transparency — ensuring that Catholic clinicians can continue offering life-affirming care without financial penalty.

Our Work Includes:

  • Partnering with The Heritage Foundation to reform medical billing codes
  • Identifying and correcting payment disparities between pro-life and secular procedures
  • Developing an AI-based billing and coding system to analyze reimbursement data
  • Educating policymakers, insurers, and healthcare leaders on the moral and financial realities of pro-life care
