Answers

individual/$1,000 family.

care services are covered before
you meet your deductible.

at non-IHCP; or Yes, $300 for
prescription drug coverage and
$300 for occupational therapy
services.
For network provider $2,500
individual / $5,000 family; for outof-network provider $4,000
individual / $8,000 family.
Copayments for certain services,
premiums, balance-billing
charges, and health care this plan
doesn’t cover.

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.

Do you need a referral to
see a specialist?

Yes.

Why This Matters
Generally, you must pay all of the costs from providers up to the deductible amount before this
plan begins to pay. If you have other family members on the plan, each family member must
meet their own individual deductible until the total amount of deductible expenses paid by all
family members meets the overall family deductible.
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 https://www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.
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 year for covered services. If you have
other family members in this plan, they have to meet their own out-of-pocket limits until the
overall family out-of-pocket limit has been met.
Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out-of-pocket limit.
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.
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.
