The savings that \\QuId have been realized for the past (12) rronths have been calculated using each of the foll~g plan deductibles. (1) $200 per member/$300 family aggregate. When the family's out-of-pocket expense reached $300 the family deductible was satisfied. (2) $200 per member/$400 family aggregate.
