Can the medical plan be network-based?
Yes, as long as the plan has a deductible tied to network-based services. For example, a plan with both in-network and out-of-network coverage would qualify, as long as there is a deductible tied to in-network services, and that deductible meets the $1,000 threshold for single, or $2,000 for family coverage. A separate, out-of-network deductible can be applied to out-of-network services and could be greater, but not less, than the limits noted here.
