Question

Carol Byrd gets a student rate of $30.00 a month. There is a $250 deductible; but no coinsurance payment. She recently received treatment for a covered condition. The bill was $2,300.00. Carol's insurance company provided payment of 80% of the bill less the deductible. What was the company's payment? What was Carol's total cost (ignoring the monthly premium)?

Answer 1

Answer: Company Pays $1640

Carol Bryd pays $410

Explanation:

The total bill is $2300 and the deductible needs to be taken out.

$2300-$250

=$2050

Company Payment.

Company Pays 80% which translates to 0.8

0.8*2050

= $1640 is the company Payment.

Carol then pays the difference which is

$2050 - $1640

= $410

Carol pays $410
