All three plans — Gold, Silver and Bronze — will pay higher benefits, and cost you less money out of pocket if you go to a physician or hospital in the UMMS Choice Network. The Gold Plan cost more out of your paycheck, and has the highest level of coverage with fewer out-of-pocket expenses at the time of service. The Silver Plan has a lower cost out of your paycheck but higher costs at the time of service. The Bronze Plan is a high-deductible option, meaning you will pay out of pocket for all of your expenses until your deductible is met. However, the premiums are lower.
