Explanation

Beneficiaries are responsible for deductibles and co-pays. Deductibles are the amount of money that beneficiaries must pay out of pocket before their insurance coverage begins. Co-pays, on the other hand, are fixed amounts that beneficiaries must pay for each healthcare service or prescription medication. These costs are separate from monthly premiums, which beneficiaries also have to pay. Therefore, beneficiaries are responsible for deductibles and co-pays in addition to monthly premiums, but not for balance billing, which refers to the amount that healthcare providers charge above what insurance covers.

This means that the healthcare provider is not contracted with the insurer, resulting in higher out of pocket costs for the insured individual. OON coverage typically requires payment of a deductible and higher co-payments and co-insurance compared to treatment from a participating provider. Additionally, the insurer may choose to deny the entire bill for services received from an out of network provider.
