Important Questions Answers Why this Matters:
What is the overall deductible? Individual: Participating $7,400
Family: Participating $17,400
Doesn't apply to preventive care & certain copayments.
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.
Are there services covered before you meet your deductible? Yes. In-Network Preventive Health Care services and services with a copay are covered before you meet your deductible.. This plan covers some items and services even if you haven't yet met the deductible amount. But a
copay mentor 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
www.healthcare.gov/coverage/preventive-care-benefits/.
Are there other
deductibles for specific
services?
No. You don't have to meet deductibles for specific services.
What is the out-of-pocket limit for this plan? Individual: Participating $8,700
Family: Participating $17,400
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.
What is not included in the out-of-pocket limit? Premiums, balance-billed charges,
and health care this plan doesn't
cover.
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.bcbsil.com or call 1-800-892-2803 for a list of
Participating 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

What is not included in
the out-of-pocket limit?
Premiums, balance-billed charges,
and health care this plan doesn't
cover.
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.bcbsil.com or call 1-
800-892-2803 for a list of Participating 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.
