Selected answer:benefits when the care is provided by an approved physician
Explanation:
The clue is in "in-network" just below. If you get treatment from one of the insurance company's registered medical professionals, you pay less. If you go out of network, for example if you don't like the in-network providers or you have the misfortune to get run over by a bus in the wrong place, it's a lot more expensive.

"Preferred" basically means "higher" in your case.
