$2,000 Family
See the Common Medical Events chart below for your costs for services this plan covers.

If you have other family members on the plan, each family member must meet their own individual deductible until the total amount of deductible expenses paid by all family members meets the overall family deductible.
Are there services covered before you meet your deductible? Yes. Primary Care, Specialty Care, Lab and Xray services, some Prescription Drugs, Urgent Care, Outpatient Mental Health, and Pediatric Dental and Vision are covered before the deductible. This plan covers some items and services even if you haven’t yet met the deductible amount. But a copayment or coinsurance may apply.
