Good morning everyone,
My wife’s employment recently ended and she will be without insurance starting on the first. She is also eight months pregnant and we’re looking to get her signed under a new plan. I don’t really understand the options we were presented with and I need some help in choosing the best one for birthing/delivery.
We were presented with three plans and I feel the first plan can safely be ruled out, but the second two plans I’m unsure of what to make of them. The second plan “seems” better, but being a cheaper option I feel like I’m missing something. The below two options are both in-network and I’ve excluded out of network as the hospital is in network.
Plan 2 deductible is: Deductible:
N/A Drug Deductible: N/A
Combined Medical and Drug Deductible: Individual: $7,400 / Family: $7400 per person | $14800 per group
Annual out of pocket is:
Medical Benefits: N/A
Drug Benefits: N/A Medical and Drug Benefits Total: Individual: $9,100 / Family: $9,100 per person | $18,200 per group
Labor/delivery - hospital stay:
$400 Copay after deductible
In-Network Only: Copay is applied per Stay.
Plan 3 (more expensive option):
Deductible:
Deductible: Individual: $0 / Family: $0 per person | $0 per group
Combined Medical and Drug Deductible: N/A
Annual out of pocket maximum:
Medical Benefits: N/A
Drug Benefits: N/A Medical and Drug Benefits Total: Individual: $9,100 / Family: $9,100 per person | $18,200 per group
Labor/delivery - hospital stay:
$3,000
In-Network Only: The cost share is applied for a max of 2 days per admission.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
