Medical Plan Cost Comparison

There’s a lot to think about when selecting a medical plan. Your premium (what you pay each year for coverage) is a big consideration. The HSA medical plans offer low premiums in exchange for higher out-of-pocket costs when you get care. NVIDIA helps you pay these costs with up to $3,000 in a Health Savings Account (HSA).

If you only expect to need routine care, an HSA plan could save you money. But if you’re managing a chronic condition or expecting a baby or surgery next year, the PPO might be a better choice. Finally, think about choice. Some plans offer low premiums and out-of-pocket costs, but limit the doctors and specialists you can see.

*Includes deductible and out-of-pocket maximum. Potential out-of-pocket costs are based on receiving care from in-network doctors, hospitals, labs and other providers. If you use out-of-network providers, or have services not covered by the plan, your costs will be higher.

**Any HSA money you don’t use stays in your account—earning interest—for you to use in the future.
