Example: a broken ankle
Say you break your ankle playing pickup basketball. You go to the ER, the doctor sets it without surgery, and you go home on crutches. After a follow-up visit and six physical therapy sessions, the plan would pay you about $1,011: $203 for the ER visit, $180 for the closed reduction, $300 for crutches, $100 for the follow-up and $228 for physical therapy.
