What is a deductible?
A deductible, sometimes
called an excess,
is a way for the
insurance company
to reduce claims
and your premium.
If your plan has
a $100 deductible,
you pay the first
$100 of expenses
and then the insurance
company picks up
the rest. Generally,
the more deductible
you choose, the lower
the cost and vice
versa.
