While the deductible is higher with this type of plan, the employee contributions (the regular amount you pay each pay period for the coverage) is typically lower than a traditional health plan.  High deductible plans don’t begin to pay the cost of medical expenses until after you’ve met the deductible.

Once you meet the deductible, you and the Plan share the cost of your care (coinsurance). Once the out-of-pocket maximum ($3,300/individual; $5,500/family) is reached, the plan pays 100% for the remainder of the calendar year.

Preventive Care Services

Preventive services are covered at 100% in-network along with certain preventive medications (not subject to the deductible).  Routine physicals, mammograms, Pap smears, and colonoscopies are covered at 100% when they are done as part of a recommended screening schedule.  The recommended screenings and immunizations can change depending on your gender, age, and family health history.  

An in-network routine eye exam is also covered at 100% once per calendar year.
