| Are there services covered before you meet your deductible? | Yes. [Insert: major categories] | 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 non-grandfathered plans insert: “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 https://www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.] | 
| Are there other deductibles for specific services? | Yes. $ | 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. | 
| What is the out-of-pocket limit for this plan? | $ | The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay in a year for covered services. [For family coverage, see instructions for additional applicable language.] | 
| What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit? | [Insert: major exceptions] | Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out–of–pocket limit. | 
| Will you pay less if you use a network provider? | Yes. See www.[insert].com or call 1-800-[insert] for a list of network providers. | This plan uses a provider network. You will pay less if you use a provider in the plan’s network. You will pay the most if you use an out-of-network provider, and you might receive a bill from a provider for the difference between the provider’s charge and what your plan pays (balance billing). Be aware, your network provider might use an out-of-network provider for some services (such as lab work). Check with your provider before you get services. | 
| Do you need a referral to see a specialist? | Yes. | This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only if you have a referral before you see the specialist. |
