The insurance company will pay 80% of the eligible amount after the deductible has been applied.  The claimant is responsible for  the other 20% of the next $10,000 to a max out of pocket cost of $3000 per injury.

Coverages/Benefits: Accident-Medical $50,000 Maximum; Accidental Death $10,000 Principal Sum; Accidental Dismemberment $10,000 Maximum.
