What is the difference between a Kaiser Permanente deductible plan and a Kaiser Permanente copayment plan?
With a Kaiser Permanente copayment plan, you pay a fixed amount when you receive covered medical care, regardless of the type of treatment you receive. With a Kaiser Permanente deductible plan, you must pay out of pocket for services until you meet a deductible. Your payment will vary depending on the treatment you receive, up to the amount of the deductible. Once your total medical costs for the calendar year meet your deductible, you’ll pay a copayment for any additional covered services you receive.
