Please look at the detailed description.

First, you will have to pay your chosen annual deductible (varies from $0 to $2,500) before the insurance company starts paying for covered expenses, even for doctor visits. You will need to continue to pay all the money yourself until you have completely satisfied the deductible. The deductible is not just for the hospitalization. There is no concept of co-pay.

After that, the insurance company pays 80% up to the selected policy maximum, ranging from $50,000 to $1,000,000, depending upon your age.

Let’s assume that you have purchased a $50,000 policy maximum with a $250 deductible for 3 months.

• Let's assume that the doctor charges you $150/visit and you need to visit several times.
  
  First time you visit the doctor, you will have to pay all of that $150 yourself. You still have $100 left towards the unsatisfied deductible.
  
  When you visit the doctor next time, and he charges you $150, you will have to pay $100 yourself. You have now completely satisfied your annual deductible. Out of the remaining $50 after your deductible, the insurance company pays 80%, that is $40 and you pay 20%, that is $10.
  
  For any subsequent treatment (whether for the same condition or a different condition), you don't have to pay the deductible again. The insurance company will pay 80%, up to $50,000.
  
  
• Let’s assume that you were in an accident and are hospitalized for 2 days. The hospital charges $12,000 per day for a total bill of $24,000. Assuming this is the first instance of your needing to use the insurance, you pay your $250 deductible plus $4,750 (20% of $23,750) and the insurance company will pay the rest.
  
  Even if you renew your insurance, you don't have to pay the deductible again.
