Are there other
deductibles for specific services?
No.
What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit?
Premiums, co-pays, penalties for failure to obtain precertification for services, balance-billed charges, prescription drugs and health care this plan doesn’t cover.
Is there an out-of-pocket limit on my expenses?
Yes. In-network: Individual $6,500 / Family 2 Individual Maximum; Out-of-network: Individual $12,500 / Family 2 Individual Maximum
You don’t have to meet deductibles for specific services, but see the chart starting on page 2 for other costs for services this plan covers.
The out-of-pocket limit is the most you could pay during a coverage period (usually one year) for your share of the cost of covered services. This limit helps you plan for health care expenses.
Even though you pay these expenses, they don’t count toward the out–of–pocket limit.

Important Questions Answers Why this Matters
You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this plan begins to pay for covered services you use. Check your policy or plan document to see when the deductible starts over (usually, but not always, January 1st). See the chart starting on page 2 for how much you pay for covered services after you meet the deductible.
Does the plan use a
network of providers?
Yes. For a list of in-network
providers, see www.aetna.com or call 1-866-253-8885.
Is there an overall annual limit on what the plan pays?
No. The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the plan will pay for specific covered services, such as office visits. If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all of the costs of covered services. Be aware, your in-network doctor or hospital may use an out-of-network provider for some services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or participating for providers in their network. See the chart starting on page 2 for how this plan pays different kinds of providers.

• This plan may encourage you to use in-network providers by charging you lower deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance amounts.
30% co-insurance
Coinsurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if the plan’s allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your coinsurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if you haven’t met your deductible.

Copayments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service.
The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.)

Questions and answers about Coverage Examples:
• •
• • • •
• The patient received all care from in-network
providers. If the patient had received care from out-of-network providers, costs would have been higher.
There are no other medical expenses for any member covered under this plan.
Yes.
An important cost is the premiumyou pay. Generally, the lower your
premium, the more you’ll pay in out-of-pocket costs, such as copayments,
deductibles, and coinsurance. You also should consider contributions to accounts such as health savings accounts (HSAs), flexible spending arrangements (FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts (HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket expenses.
No
. Coverage Examples are not cost estimators. Youcan’t use the examples to estimate costs for an actual condition. They are for comparative purposes only. Your own costs will be different depending on the care you receive, the prices your providers charge, and the
Does the Coverage Example predict my
future expenses?
No.
Treatments shown are just examples. The care you would receive for these conditions could be different based on your doctor’s advice, your age, how serious your condition is, and many other factors. Out-of-pocket expenses are based only ontreating the condition in the example.
All services and treatments started and ended in
the same policy period.
Are there other costs I should
consider when comparing
plans?
The patient’s condition was not an excluded orpreexisting condition.
Yes.
When you look at the Summary of Benefits and Coverage for other plans, you’ll find the same Coverage Examples. When you compare plans, check the “Patient Pays” box for each example. The smaller that number, the more coverage the plan provides.Does the Coverage Example predict my
own care needs?
What are some of the assumptions
behind the Coverage Examples?
Sample care costs are based on national averages supplied by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and aren’t specific to a particular geographic area or health plan. Costs don’t include premiums.
For each treatment situation, the Coverage Example helps you see how deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance
can add up. It also helps you see what expenses might be left up to you to pay because the service or treatment isn’t covered or payment is limited.
