Medical deductible: What you pay out-of-pocket before your coverage starts. Our plans don’t have medical deductibles.
* Review the provider directory at HealthAlliance.org/Medicare for our in-network doctors and hospitals. With an HMO plan, you choose a primary doctor (or PCP) from our broad network. You’re not covered out of network unless it’s for emergency or urgent care.
With a POS plan, you still choose an in-network PCP, but you have the freedom to go out of network. You save money by staying in network, though.
Generally, the higher the tier, the more you pay for the drug. Some prescriptions require step therapy (for you to try a lower tier first), prior authorization or a limit on the amount you can receive at one time. If your drug isn’t covered, you can ask for an exception. For more information, see the formulary.
Skilled nursing facility (SNF): What you pay for an approved stay at a SNF.
Copayment/coinsurance: The set dollar amount or percentage you pay for a doctor’s visit, at the hospital or at the pharmacy. Copayment is a specific dollar amount (like $20), and coinsurance is a percentage (like 20%).
Emergency care: The amount you pay for emergency care, like a trip to the emergency department.
• Tier 1 (Preferred Generic).
Inpatient hospital care: The amount you pay for a stay in an in-network hospital.*
Ambulance: What you pay for an ambulance ride in an emergency.
• Tier 3 (Preferred Brand).
Lab: What you pay for lab services, like blood tests.
• Tier 2 (Generic).
• Tier 5 (Specialty Tier).
Perks: Extra services that come with our Medicare Advantage plans but don’t come with Original Medicare.
Outpatient surgery: What you pay for an outpatient procedure.
• Tier 4 (Non-Preferred Drug).
Drug tier: The cost group a drug belongs to. Drugs in our Medicare Part D formulary are in one of five groups:
Primary care provider (PCP) visit: The amount you pay at the doctor’s office when you visit your in-network primary care doctor.*
Specialist visit: What you pay for each visit to an in-network specialist, like a cardiologist or orthopedic doctor.*
Urgent care: The amount you pay for urgent or convenient care.
Premium: The amount you pay each month for plan coverage. You must continue to pay your Medicare Part B premium.
Yearly limit: The limit of how much money you pay for covered medical services, including copayments and coinsurance, each year. It’s also called out-of-pocket maximum.
