What does Embedded Deductible mean?
A family-plan design with an individual deductible inside the family deductible.
Illustration — not a plan price
One family member can reach the individual threshold before the combined family threshold is met; the plan document controls what is paid next.
The actual plan document controls. Verify its definitions, network, exclusions, dates, and amounts before relying on the illustration.
Definitions here are never for sale — no plan is recommended on a comprehension page.
