What does that word mean?
Premium
The recurring amount you pay to keep coverage, even when you do not use it.
Deductible
The amount you pay for certain covered services before coverage begins paying its share. Rules differ by benefit.

A copayment is a set dollar amount. Coinsurance is a percentage of the covered cost.
Formulary
A plan’s list of covered prescription drugs. Check your exact drug, dose and any restrictions.
Network
The providers and facilities that participate in a plan. Check the exact plan, not just the insurance company.
Creditable drug coverage
