The annual deductible is the aggregate maximum amount that the insurance policy requires the insured(s) to pay over the course of a year in deductibles. Stated otherwise, a deductible will normally be incurred for each physician's visit, medical test, or other procedure.
A deductible is the fixed amount of medical costs you are responsible for paying before your insurance coverage starts picking up the bill. For example, if the total bill for a simple surgery were $5,000, you might have to pay the first $500 before your insurance company pays the remaining $4,500.
