An employee once asked me, "What's the difference between a deductible and an out-of-pocket max?" Nobody had ever explained it to him. Here's how I'd answer it in a benefits guide for your team.

Employee Benefits GuideQ&A · Health plan basics

What's the difference between a deductible and an out-of-pocket max?

Deductible
What you pay for covered care before your insurance starts helping.
Out-of-pocket max
The most you'll pay in a plan year for covered, in-network care. Once you hit it, your plan pays 100% for the rest of the plan year. Monthly premiums don't count toward it.
