HDHP (high deductible health plan) is what it seems. No moving parts (in most cases). You pay the small medical bills, the policy pays the big ones. Pretty simple.
Some (but not all) HDHP's are eligible for coupling with an HSA. Your insurance agent can tell you which plans are HSA compliant and which are not.
The HDHP works like this. You choose a health insurance plan with a high deductible, usually $3500 or more, but it can go as high as $20,000. You act as your own health insurance company up to the deductible, the plan pays the rest.
Most plans pay 100% of covered charges above the deductible but some will pay a lesser amount such as 70 or 80%.
Some plans have a few office visit copay's or Rx copay's to give some sex appeal. They are usually a waste of money and are not HSA compatible.
Other plans are in fact limited benefit plans that do not cover brand name prescription drugs or may not cover any medication expenses at all. Others will not pay for outpatient doctor visits.
This is like buying auto insurance that covers everything except when you are at fault.
In looking for an HDHP you want comprehensive coverage that pays 100% after the deductible is satisfied and does not throw in a few copay's as window dressing.
