Medical
Medical coverage provides healthcare protection for you and your family. You can visit any provider, but in-network doctors offer the highest level of benefits and lower out-of-pocket costs by charging reduced, contracted rates. Out-of-network providers set their own fees, so you may be responsible for charges above the Reasonable and Customary (R&C) limits. Preventive care—such as physical exams, flu shots, and screenings—is covered at 100% when you use in-network providers. The main differences between plan options are how much you pay per paycheck and what you pay when you receive care.
Each plan has different:
- Annual deductible amounts – the amount you pay each year for eligible in-network and out-of-network charges before the plan begins to pay.
- Out-of-pocket maximums– the most you will pay each year for eligible network services and/or prescriptions. After you reach your out-of-pocket maximum, the plan picks up the full cost of covered medical care for the remainder of the year.
- Copays – A copay is a fixed amount you pay for a health care service. Copays do not count toward your deductible but do count toward your annual out-of-pocket maximum.
- Coinsurance – Once you’ve met your deductible, you and the plan share the cost of care, which is called coinsurance. For example, you pay 20% for services and the plan will pay 80% of the cost until you have reached your out-of-pocket maximum.
