☆ Picking health insurance can be tricky: 6 key terms to know as open enrollment starts

PremiumsFrederic Cirou | Photoalto | Getty ImagesThe premium is the sum you pay an insurer each month to participate in a health plan. It's perhaps the most transparent and easy-to-understand cost component of a health plan — the equivalent of a sticker price. The average co-insurance rate for consumers is 19% for primary care and 20% for specialty care, according to KFF data. For example, would you struggle to pay a $1,000 medical bill if you require health care? If so, a health plan with a larger monthly premium and a smaller deductible may be your best bet, Sun said.

☆ It’s Not Just You: Many Americans Face Insurance Obstacles Over Medical Care and Bills
  + stars: | 2023-06-15 | by ( Reed Abelson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +3 min
The NewsA majority of Americans with health insurance said they had encountered obstacles to coverage, including denied medical care, higher bills and a dearth of doctors in their plans, according to a new survey from KFF, a nonprofit health research group. Those who were most likely to need medical care — people who described themselves as in fair or poor health — reported more trouble; three-fourths of those receiving mental health treatment experienced problems. The survey also underscored the persistent problem of affordability as people struggled to pay their share of health care costs. Among the nearly 60 percent who reported difficulty with their insurance coverage, 15 percent said their health had declined. Background: Insurance coverage is confusing to everyone.

PremiumsThe premium is the sum you pay an insurer each month to participate in the health plan. It's perhaps the most transparent and easy-to-understand cost component of a health plan — the equivalent of a sticker price. Eighty-eight percent of workers covered by a health plan have a deductible in 2022, according to KFF. For example, would you struggle to pay a $1,000 medical bill if you require health care? If so, a health plan with a larger monthly premium and a smaller deductible may be your best bet, Sun said.
