A PPO lets members use out-of-network providers, though usually at a higher out-of-pocket cost than in-network care.

The amount the insured pays before the plan begins to pay

The deductible is the amount the insured must pay out of pocket before the plan starts paying covered expenses.

4. An 80/20 coinsurance arrangement means that after the deductible the plan pays:

Under 80/20 coinsurance, the plan pays 80 percent of covered charges and the insured pays the remaining 20 percent.
