* Estimate is statistically different from estimate for the previous year shown (p < .05). NOTE: OOP refers to ‘out-of-pocket.’ Out-of-pocket maximums reported are for in-network services. Covered workers without an OOP maximum are considered to be exposed to at least the specified threshold. Some of these workers may be enrolled in plans whose cost-sharing structure has other limits that make it impossible to reach the specified threshold.
