English term or phrase: steeper deductibles
Consumers May Restrict Utilization

Higher health insurance premiums, ***steeper deductibles***, and larger coinsurance mean consumers are spending more out of their own pockets for healthcare, and 60% of consumers surveyed by PwC expect to pay even more in the future. Yet cost shifting may have reached the end of the line, as increased price sensitivity has caused consumers to decrease utilization.

更高的免赔额
Explanation:
I agree with Liu Jie that deductibles = 免赔额
However, steeper simply means higher.
For example, when you say that a price is steep, it means that it is very expensive (price is high).
Just FYI.
