This is only a summary. For general definitions of common terms, such as allowed amount, balance billing, coinsurance, copayment, deductible, provider, or other underlined terms see the Glossary. You can see the Glossary at or call to request a copy. For more information about your coverage, or to get a copy of the complete terms of coverage, please visit Important Questions Answers Why this Matters: What is the overall deductible?

If you have other family member(s) on the plan, each family member may need to meet their own individual deductible, OR all family members may combine to meet the overall family deductible before the plan begins to pay, depending upon plan coverage. Please refer to your contract for further details. This plan covers some items and services even if you haven t yet met the deductible amount. But, a copayment or coinsurance may apply. For example, this plan covers certain preventive services without cost sharing and before you meet your deductible. See a list of covered preventive services at You must pay all of the costs for these services up to the specific deductible amount before this plan begins to pay for these services. The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay in a plan year for covered services. If you have other family member(s) on the plan, each family member may need to meet their own out-of-pocket limits, OR all family members may combine to meet the overall family out-of-pocket limit, depending upon plan coverage. Please refer to your contract for further details. Even though you pay these expenses, they don't count toward the out-of-pocket limit.

2 Will you pay less if you use a network provider? Do I need a referral to see a specialist? Yes. See or call for a list of provider network. No. This plan uses a provider network. You will pay less if you use a provider in the plan s network.
