What about copays or deductibles?
Plan to pay any copays or deductible that applies for your plan. If an insurance claim is denied it is your responsibility to pay any remaining balance in full. A copay is a set amount that you need to pay to see a specialist (if we're not able to cover this service as preventative under your insurance plan) A deductible is a minimum that you need to spend towards your health care costs before your insurance coverage will kick in. The value of the deductible varies from plan to plan.
