Does the plan have any separate “services deductibles” or “access fee” for each hospital admission or for each outpatient test?
Some plans, like Assurant Health’s “CoreMed” plan have a separate $750 hospital admission fee for the first three days of each hospital stay. These hospital admission fees may also be called “Access Fees” on other policies. Typically the insured is responsible for paying these access fees for each hospital admission in addition to their calendar year health plan deductible.
