Know Your BenefitsBrought to you by: Sentinel Risk Advisors, LLCMedical Insurance InformationDeductible: A deductible is the amount of money you or your dependents must pay toward a health claim before your organization’s health plan makes any payments for health care services rendered. For example, a plan participant with a $100 deductible would be required to pay the first $100, in total, of any claims during a plan year.Copayment (Copay): A copay is a flat fee you pay upfront for doctor visits, prescriptions, and other healthcare services. It does not count toward your deductible. Coinsurance: On top of your deductible, coinsurance is a provision in your health plan that shows what percentage of a medical bill you pay and the percentage a health plan pays.Out-of-pocket Maximum (OOPM): An OOPM is the maximum amount (deductible and coinsurance) that you will have to pay for covered expenses under a plan. Once the OOPM is reached the plan will cover eligible expenses at 100 percent.Explanation of Benefits (EOB): An EOB is a description your insurance carrier sends to you explaining the health care benefits that you received and the services for which your health care provider has requested payment.Preferred Provider Organization (PPO): A PPO is a group of hospitals and physicians that contract on a fee-for-service basis with insurance companies to provide comprehensive medical service. If you have a PPO, your out-of-pocket costs may be lower than in a non-PPOplan.This Know Your Benefits article is provided by Sentinel Risk Advisors, LLC and is to be used for informational purposes only and is not intended to replace the advice of an insurance professional. © 2005, 2011, 2013-2014, 2020 Zywave, Inc.

For frames, a typical allowance is $150. In that case if you choose frames that cost less than $150, you pay nothing. If you choose frames that cost more than $150, you’ll pay the difference. So, for frames that cost $170, you’ll pay $20 at the doctor’s office.Frequency: How often you can get an exam or eyewear with your Eye Med network doctor.Lens Enhancement: A lens enhancement or lens option is an elective feature for your prescription lenses designed to improve your overall experience with your glasses.
