A pre-existing #condition is a #medical condition that an individual had before they enrolled in their #health insurance plan. #Insurance companies may charge higher premiums or deny coverage altogether for individuals with pre-existing conditions. https://t.co/xOrlfLCCMO
Out-of-network providers are #Medical professionals and facilities that have not contracted with an individual’s #insurance company. Using out-of-network #providers can result in higher out-of-pocket costs for medical services.
In-network providers are medical professionals and facilities that have contracted with an individual’s insurance company to provide services at a discounted rate. Using in-network providers can help individuals save money on medical expenses.
An out-of-pocket maximum is the most an individual will have to pay for #medical#expenses in a given year. Once an individual reaches their out-of-pocket maximum, their insurance will cover 100% of any additional medical expenses for the remainder of the year.
Coinsurance is a % of the cost of #medical services that an individual is responsible for paying. This amount is usually in addition to any #co-pays or #deductibles that must be paid.

A #deductible is the amount of #money an individual must pay out of pocket for #medical#expenses before their #insurance coverage kicks in. Deductibles can vary depending on the insurance plan, and they can be different for in-network and out-of-network #providers.
A #premium is the amount of money an individual pays for #health#insurance coverage. Premiums can be paid on a monthly or yearly basis, and the amount of the premium will depend on a number of factors, including age, health status, and the type of coverage they are purchasing.
Health insurance provides financial protection for medical expenses. This can include doctor visits, hospital stays, prescriptions, & other medical treatments. In exchange for paying a premium, those with health insurance receive coverage for these expenses. #Healthinsurance
