    Paying for care

    Your deductible plan works a little differently than a traditional HMO plan. But you get the same quality care and convenience you expect from Kaiser Permanente.

    With your plan, you’ll pay the full charges for most covered services until you reach your deductible. Then you’ll start paying less — generally, a coinsurance. * The steps in this brochure show what happens before, during, and after each visit — so you can avoid surprises and better understand and manage your health care costs.

    Kaiser Permanente Deductible Plan Members

    You can get an estimate of your costs anytime at kp.org/costestimates. See the next page for details.

    *Depending on your plan, you may pay copays or coinsurance for some services without having to reach your deductible.

  • During your visit Know what to expect

    Before your visit Get a cost estimate

    Use our online Estimates toolVisit kp.org/costestimates for an estimate of what you’ll pay for many common services. Estimates are based on your plan benefits and whether you’ve reached your deductible — so you get personalized information every time.

    Call us for an estimateIf you can’t get an estimate for a service online, call 303-338-3025 or 1-877-803-1929 (TTY 711), weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

    After your visit Manage your bills and costs

    Understanding your billsYou’ll get a bill after most visits. It will show the charges for the services you got, what you paid, what your health plan paid, and the amount you owe. Depending on the care you received, you may get a physician bill, a hospital bill, or both. If you’ve signed up for electronic billing, you’ll get an email alert instead of a paper bill.

    Paying your billYou have several convenient options:

    • Online: The easiest way to pay is to visit kp.org/paymedicalbills. You can securely pay your bill anytime.

    • By mail: Send your payment in the return envelope that came with your bill.

    • By phone: Call Member Services, weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

    • In person: You can pay at a Kaiser Permanente medical office.

    Tracking your expensesOn kp.org, you can access the status of your eligibility and a list of covered benefits. You are also able to see what your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum limits are. Once you reach your deductible, you’ll pay a copay or coinsurance for covered services instead of the full charges. If you reach your out-of-pocket maximum, you won’t pay for covered services for the rest of the year.*

    • Visit kp.org/costestimates: It’s a quick, easy way to check your progress toward reaching your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.

    • Track your costs online, anytime: Sign on to kp.org and go to My Coverage and Costs to see your claims summary. It lists the charges for services you’ve received.

    Visit kp.org/choosepaperless to switch to electronic bills, EOBs, and more. *Depending on your plan, preventive care services are covered at no cost or at a copay. For more information, see your Evidence of Coverage.

    Make a payment when you check inWhen you come in for care, you’ll be asked to make a payment for your scheduled services. Your payment may only cover part of what you owe for your visit, especially if you get any additional services. In that case, you’ll get a bill for the difference later.

    Expect a bill for additional servicesDuring your visit, your doctor may decide you also need services that weren’t scheduled — like a blood test or an X-ray. When you go to the lab or Radiology Department, you’ll make a payment for these services. If what you pay at check-in doesn’t cover everything you owe, you’ll get a bill later.

    Costs for non-preventive carePreventive care services are a good way to catch health problems early. That’s why they’re covered at no cost or at a copay.* But sometimes when you come in for preventive care, you’ll get non-preventive services too. For example, during a routine physical exam, your doctor might remove a mole for testing. Because mole removal and testing are non-preventive, you’ll get a bill for them later. * Depending on your plan, for a small number of services, you may need to keep paying copays or coinsurance after reaching

    your out-of-pocket maximum.

    Do you have an HRA, HSA, or FSA?You can use the money in your health reimbursement arrangement (HRA), health savings account (HSA), or flexible spending account (FSA) to pay for care.* Just use the debit card for your account, if you have one, when you check in for your visit or when paying a bill later. Be sure to keep all receipts, bills, and EOBs in case you need to document your expenses later.

    Have questions or need help paying for care?If you have questions about your costs or bills, call Medical Financial Counseling Services at 303-338-3025 or 1-877-803-1929 (TTY 711), weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. You can also get information about financial assistance and payment options for members who need help paying for care.

    Important termsHere are some terms to help you understand your plan. See your Evidence of Coverage for your plan details, including the date your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum will start over.

    Deductible: The amount you pay each year for covered services before Kaiser Permanente starts paying. Depending on your plan, you may pay copays or coinsurance for some services without having to reach your deductible.

    Copay: The set amount you pay for covered services — for example, a $10 copay for an office visit.

    Coinsurance: A percentage of the charges that you pay for covered services. For example, a 20% coinsurance for a $200 procedure means you pay $40.

    Out-of-pocket maximum: The maximum amount you’ll pay for covered services each year. For a small number of services, you may need to keep paying copays or coinsurance after reaching your out-of-pocket maximum.†
