Question

Martha has a healthcare plan with $20 co-pays to see doctors, $10 co-pays for prescription drugs, and an annual deductible of $1,000. In April she had to pay $1,300 for knee imaging and diagnostics out of her own pocket. Then in May she sees three doctors who bill $857, $139, and $271 and buys two prescriptions which cost $40 and $27. What is Martha's share of the bills in May?
$80
$117
$287
$1,334

Answer 1

Given:
20 co-pays to see doctor
10 co-pays for prescription drugs
1,000 annual deductible.

3 doctors with the following bills - 857, 139, 271
2 prescription drugs - 40 and 27

Co-pay means that Martha should pay a fixed amount to see doctors and for prescription drugs.

Martha saw 3 doctors so her total co-pay is 60.   (20 x 3)
Martha has 2 prescription, so her total co-pay is 20. (10 x 2)

Martha's share of the bills in May is 80.  (60 + 20)
