Deductible A specific dollar amount that your health insurance company may require that you pay out-of-pocket each year before your health insurance plan begins to make payments for claims. – Not all health insurance plans require a deductible. – As a general rule (though there are many exceptions), HMO plans typically do not require a deductible, while most PPO plans do.
