They are paying most of the normal medical bills which you would expect and should be budgeted for almost as much as the rent or mortgage or car payments. They will be protected from very expensive bills that they could not possibly pay, or that if they could pay would totally destroy their financial situation. The idea that we should have someone else pay our normal medical bills (and in most cases have the payment program subsidized by the employer and indirectly by the government), is one of the reasons that we have such expensive health care.
