Understanding key insurance terms

Learning some key terms can help you understand how health insurance works. Here’s a simple guide to a few common terms you’ll see when using your WellSense Clarity plan coverage.

To learn more about these and other terms commonly used when dealing with health insurance, visit healthcare.gov/glossary or call Member Service at 855-833-8120 (TTY: 711). We’ll be happy to answer your questions. 

The amount you pay each month to keep your insurance active, just like a subscription fee.

The amount you must pay for covered health services each year before your plan starts sharing costs.

Example: If your deductible is $2,000, you pay for your own care until you reach $2,000 in expenses (not including many preventive services, which are covered at no cost to you or with a copay).

A fixed amount you pay when you receive certain services, such as a doctor’s visit or urgent care. Copays don’t count toward your deductible, but they do count toward your out-of-pocket maximum.

The percentage of costs you pay for healthcare after meeting your deductible.

Example: If your coinsurance is 20%, you pay 20% of the price we’ve negotiated with your provider for their services, and we pay the other 80%.

The list of prescription medications covered by your plan. The list includes details like how much your copay is or whether you need prior authorization to fill the prescription.

The most you’ll pay for covered care in a year. After reaching it, we pay 100% of covered services for the rest of the year — no more copays, no more coinsurance.

Healthcare services meant to keep you healthy and that you should get even if you aren’t sick, like annual checkups, vaccinations and recommended screenings. These are covered at no cost, even before your deductible.
