Insurance term
High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)
A High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) is a health insurance plan that has a higher annual deductible than many other plans, so you usually pay more out of pocket before the plan starts to pay for covered services. These plans often have lower monthly premiums and may still cover certain preventive care before you meet the deductible, subject to plan rules.
Example
Maria chose an HDHP through her employer because she wanted a lower monthly premium and was comfortable paying more upfront if she needed care.
