The plan deductible applies to almost all benefits in this Section.  In the You pay column, we say “Not subject to deductible” when it does not apply.  When you receive covered services from in-network or out-of-network providers, you are responsible for paying the eligible charges until you meet the deductible. The Self and Family deductible can be satisfied when at least two (2) covered family members have met their individual deductible in a calendar year.

After you meet the deductible, we pay our portion of eligible charges (less your coinsurance or copayment) until you meet the annual catastrophic out-of-pocket maximum. Once you've met the out-of-pocket maximum, we pay eligible charges at 100% for the balance of the year for in-network services.

Please refer to Section 4 for your out-of-pocket maximum and services/expenses that do not count towards your out-of-pocket maximum.

Plan deductible: You are responsible for 100% of eligible charges until you meet the combined in-network and out-of-network plan deductible of $3,000 for Self Only or $6,000 for Self Plus One or $6,000 for Self and Family enrollment. You may choose to pay the deductible from your HSA or HRA, or you can pay it out-of-pocket.

After you meet your plan deductible, you pay the indicated coinsurance or copayments for covered in-network services until you have met your annual catastrophic out-of-pocket maximum.  

For out-of-network services, in addition to your indicated coinsurance or copayments, you are always responsible for the difference between our allowance and billed charges, even after you have met your annual catastrophic out-of-pocket maximum.

You may choose to pay the coinsurance and copayments from your HSA or HRA, or you can pay for them out-of-pocket.
