Sec. 1273.055. COST-SHARING PROVISIONS. (a) Different cost-sharing provisions may be imposed for a point-of-service plan offered under this subchapter, and those provisions may be higher than the cost-sharing provisions for in-network health maintenance organization coverage. For an enrollee in a limited provider network, higher cost-sharing may be imposed only when the enrollee obtains benefits or services outside the health maintenance organization delivery network.
(b) An employee who chooses the non-network plan is responsible for any additional costs for the non-network plan, and the employer may impose a reasonable administrative fee for providing the non-network plan.
