A deductible is the amount of money that members pay out of their own pocket before the plan begins to pay benefits.

The percentage members pay for a covered healthcare service after they meet their deductible.

Out of Pocket Maximum means the maximum amount a member pays out-of-pocket every plan year for some covered care and services before benefits are paid in full up the allowable amount or up to any dollar limit. If a member obtains both in-network and out-of-network services, 2 separate out-of-pocket maximums apply. If a member reaches the out-of-pocket maximum in a plan year, Moda will pay 100% of eligible expenses for the remainder of the year.

The out-of-pocket maximum includes deductible, coinsurances and copays. It does not include additional cost tier (ACT) copays, pharmacy expenses, disallowed charges or balance billing amounts from out-of-network providers.

The maximum cost share is different than the out-of-pocket maximum. This plan year limit includes ACT copays, pharmacy copays and coinsurance, as well as the eligible medical expenses that accrue toward your in-network out-of-pocket maximum. Once the maximum cost share is reached, the plan covers all eligible medical and pharmacy expenses at 100 percent.

No. The out of pocket maximum is the most members pay in a calendar year for some covered care and services before benefits are paid in full up to the allowable amount or up to any visit or dollar limit . Once members meet their out-of-pocket maximum, the plan covers eligible expenses at 100 percent, except for services that are not applicable to the out-of-pocket maximum or do not qualify as essential health benefits. The out-of-pocket maximum includes deductibles, coinsurance and copays. It does not include ACT copays, pharmacy, disallowed charges or balance billing from out-of-network providers.

Yes, the deductible needs to be met before the services with copayments are paid. There are two exceptions:

1. Your first 4 visits with your PCP360 per calendar year
2. Mental health services

No. There are separate in-network and out-of-network deductibles. Only in-network expenses apply to the in-network deductible, and only out-of-network expenses apply to the out-of-network deductible. For all plans, the out-of-network deductible is twice the in-network deductible. Pharmacy has a separate deductible, and only medications apply to the pharmacy deductible.

Members have access to the Moda Health travel network. The travel network allows medical plan members to receive emergency and non-emergency care outside of their primary service area while traveling. Eligible members need to seek care from a First Health Network provider to receive in-network benefits.

Dependents living outside of the primary network area can also use the Moda Health travel network to receive care at an in-network benefit level. More information about setting up dependents in "out-of-area" status can be found on the Eligibility FAQ.

The Moda Health travel network is not an alternative primary network. Members must seek in-network services whenever possible, and preauthorization is required for in-patient services.

If a member is traveling out of the service area and seeks care from an out-of-network physician or provider, the benefit will be paid at the out-of-network benefit level. Out-of-network benefits are subject to the maximum plan allowable.

The medical plan includes maximum plan allowance (MPA) pricing. MPA is the maximum amount that Moda Health will reimburse a non-contracted provider. A non-contracted provider may bill a member for any amount over and above the MPA. This may leave members with a high out of pocket balance. A member considering using a non-contracted provider should call customer service to inquire as to whether MPA would apply.

If a member is out of the service area and has a medical emergency, the member should go to the nearest emergency room or urgent care facility. Benefits will be paid at the in-network benefit level, subject to the maximum plan allowance for urgent and emergency services.

Moda Health will follow its standard Transition of Care healthcare services policy. Transition of Care services may be approved under extraordinary circumstances for a finite period of time for a member who, while actively receiving medically necessary services, moves from a health plan with another carrier to Moda Health and, as a result, has ongoing medical services that become out of network. The member must complete a Transition of Care form that Moda Health will review and approve.
