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.
Deductible. A deductible is a minimum amount which must be paid out of pocket before the insurance kicks in. So for example, if the deductible on a plan is $100, the individual would have to pay the first $100 out of pocket before the insurance would cut down any additional costs. The second consideration is the co-pay. After the deductible is met, the insurance will cover a portion of the bill, and then the patient is responsible for paying the remainder of that bill. The patientâs portion of the final bill is called the co-pay.
