A 'calendar-year' deductible in a medical plan means the insured must satisfy the deductible:

A calendar-year (or annual) deductible must be met once during each year; once the insured's covered costs reach that amount, the plan pays its share for the rest of the year, and the deductible resets the following year. A deductible applied to each separate illness is a per-cause deductible. It is not a one-time lifetime deductible, and it does not reset monthly. The calendar-year structure is the most common deductible design in medical expense plans.
