A deductible is an amount you pay before the Insurance Company starts paying. Health insurance plans will have different deductibles. You’ll be expected to pay the whole medical bill out of your own pocket until you’ve paid your deductible.

Your out-of-pocket maximum is the most you’ll have to pay for covered services in a policy period (one year), each January 1st it starts over again, and that includes cost of medications too. After you reach this amount, your health insurance plan will pay 100%.
