Summary of Benefits and Coverage: What this Plan Covers & What it Costs Common Medical Event

Aetna Student Health: University of Michigan - International

Coverage Period: beginning on or after 9/1/11 Coverage for: Individual Plan Type: PPO

Co-payments are fixed dollar amounts (for example, $15) you pay for covered health care, usually when you receive the service. Co-insurance is your share of the costs of a covered service, calculated as a percent of the allowed amount for the service. For example, if the plans allowed amount for an overnight hospital stay is $1,000, your co-insurance payment of 20% would be $200. This may change if you havent met your deductible. The amount the plan pays for covered services is based on the allowed amount. If an out-of-network provider charges more than the allowed amount, you may have to pay the difference. For example, if an out-of-network hospital charges $1,500 for an overnight stay and the allowed amount is $1,000, you may have to pay the $500 difference. (This is called balance billing.) This plan may encourage you to use participating providers by charging you lower deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance amounts.

Coverage Examples

Aetna Student Health: University of Michigan - International

Coverage Period: beginning on or after 9/1/11 Coverage for: Individual Plan Type: PPO

Questions and answers about the Coverage Examples:


What are some of the assumptions behind the Coverage Examples?
Costs dont include premiums. Sample care costs are based on national averages supplied by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and arent specific to a particular geographic area or health plan. The patients condition was not an excluded or preexisting condition. All services and treatments started and ended in the same coverage period. There are no other medical expenses for any member covered under this plan. Out-of-pocket expenses are based only on treating the condition in the example. The patient received all care from innetwork providers. If the patient had received care from out-of-network providers, costs would have been higher.

What does a Coverage Example show?


For each treatment situation, the Coverage Example helps you see how deductibles, co-payments, and co-insurance can add up. It also helps you see what expenses might be left up to you to pay because the service or treatment isnt covered or payment is limited.

Can I use Coverage Examples to compare plans?

Yes. When you look at the Summary of


Benefits and Coverage for other plans, youll find the same Coverage Examples. When you compare plans, check the Patient Pays box in each example. The smaller that number, the more coverage the plan provides.

Does the Coverage Example predict my own care needs?

No. Treatments shown are just examples.

Are there other costs I should consider when comparing plans?

The care you would receive for this condition could be different based on your doctors advice, your age, how serious your condition is, and many other factors.

Yes. An important cost is the premium

Does the Coverage Example predict my future expenses?

No. Coverage Examples are not cost

estimators. You cant use the examples to estimate costs for an actual condition. They are for comparative purposes only. Your own costs will be different depending on the care you receive, the prices your providers charge, and the reimbursement your health plan allows.

you pay. Generally, the lower your premium, the more youll pay in out-ofpocket costs, such as co-payments, deductibles, and co-insurance. You should also consider contributions to accounts such as health savings accounts (HSAs), flexible spending arrangements (FSAs) or health reimbursement accounts (HRAs) that help you pay out-of-pocket expenses.
