Latest Podcast Episode Talks Health Insurance Terminology

Learn about deductibles, copays and other common terms to know

Still confused by the difference between a deductible, copay, and coinsurance? You’re not alone. In the latest episode of “Under the Coverage,” we break down these health insurance terms that show up on nearly every benefit plan, so you can figure out what you’re spending, and where it's going, and ultimately make the best decision for your wallet and your health.

In “Deductibles, Copays & Coinsurance – Health Insurance Terms You Should Know,” hosts Sara Fluskey, Nova chief marketing & communications officer, and Jolene Myers, manager, marketing, explain these items and how to find them in your health insurance plan.

“You know, there's the cost to enroll in the plan, there’s the deductible, the amount you’re paying out of pocket, there’s copay and co-insurance, which are different ways to calculate the cost of those services, which can be impacted by whether or not your plan has a deductible,” said Myers.

If that’s giving you a headache, tune into the podcast and let us help make these terms slightly less confusing.
