Out of pocket (OOP) is the amount your insurance requires you to meet with your copay percentage. With most insurances you have a deductible, say $500. You have to pay this before the insurance will cover any of the medical cost. Once the deductible is met, depending on you insurance coverage, you will most likely have a copay. This is usually 80/20 meaning the insurance will pay for 80% of the cost and you are responsible for 20% until you meet your out of pocket which will vary in amount depending on you insurance coverage. I.E. Say your blood work cost $100 and you've already met your $500 deductible but you still have $300 to meet on your $1,000 out of pocket, you would be responsible for 20% of the $100 cost or to make it easier you would still pay $20. Hope this helps you better understand your insurance.
