Is a health insurance premium something you must pay every month, regardless of whether you use health care services, or do you only have to pay your health insurance premium during months when you use health care services?

Must pay every month, regardless of whether you use services.

Suppose your health plan covers lab tests in full if you go to an in-network lab, but only pays 60% of allowed charges if you go out of network. You forget to check and go get your blood test at a lab that turns out to be out of network. The lab bills you $100 for the blood test. Your health insurance allows only a $20 charge for that test. How much would you have to pay out of pocket for that lab test?

$88.. Your health plan will pay 60% of the $20 allowed charge, or $12. Because the lab is not in network, it is not required to accept the health insurance's discounted price, which is also called the allowed charge. The lab can bill you for the balance, which is $88.

Suppose that under your health insurance policy, hospital expenses are subject to a $1,000 deductible and $250 per day copay. You get sick and are hospitalized for 4 days, and the bill (after insurance discounts are applied) comes to $6,000. How much of that hospital bill will you have to pay yourself?

2,000
