SECTION 3 2019 MEDICAL PLAN Medical Insurance Terms Network Availability Network Differences Spira Care Plan Designs & Cost Claim Examples
Medical Insurance Terms Copay a fixed dollar amount you pay for covered services. Such services include but are not limited to physician office visits, urgent care, and prescriptions. Deductible is the amount of money you pay for services before coinsurance applies. This does not apply to preventive services required under the Affordable Care Act. Coinsurance is the percentage you pay for certain services based of the allowed amount charged. Generally, the insurance company pays the larger portion of the percentage and you pay the smaller portion. Coinsurance applies after the deductible has been met. Out-of-Pocket Maximum is the most you will pay in a given plan year for your benefits, not including your premium. Your deductible, copays, and coinsurance all accumulate towards this maximum amount. Once this is met, all covered services will be paid at 100% for the remainder of the plan year.
