for all physician visits.
Natalie visited the doctor for a sprained ankle on January 1st. The
bill was $90. How much will Natalie pay for the visit?
Solution:
1.The Bill was $40 only,that is below the deductible.Hence,Carl will have to pay $40 for the visit.
2.Calculation of Cyrus pay
Coinsurance expense=Total bill-deductible
=$5000-$2000
=$3,000
Cyrus pay=Deductible+20% of Coinsurance expense
=$2000+($3,000*.20)
=$2,600
3.Since the total bill($75) amount is lower than the deductible(i.e $800),hence Bellamy have to pay for the total bill.
Therefore,total amount that Bellamy will pay is $75
4.There is $45 co-payment for all physician visits.Therefore total amount that Natalie will pay for the visit is ;
=total bill-$45
=$90-$45
=$45
