Payments are limited to a set dollar amount based on usual, customary, and reasonable (UCR) fees.
UCR fees are arbitrary. Charges for a procedure in a geographic area form a range. If an insurance company pays at the 90th percentile, 90% of the fees in the range are less than their rate of payment and 10% are more. Different insurance companies pay at different percentiles. If you go to a provider who charges above the payment limit, you are 100% responsible for the excess charges. They do not count toward the deductible.
$5,000 is called the Stop-Loss (where your losses stop and the insurance company takes over). You could still be liable for excess charges above UCR amounts depending on company and plan.
May be waived for an accident in the first 90 days.
