Health Insurance

Question 2 • 26-27 Ignite Financial Literacy Personal Finance - EL3403

The health care Jimmy’s employer offers is a fee-for-service plan in which Jimmy and his family must pay for $12,500 in health related services in a calendar year before the insurance company begins to pay. Jimmy and his family have several health related issues that demand $685.00 each month. If one of Jimmy’s children were to become seriously injured at the end of the year, how much more would Jimmy and his family need to pay before the insurance company begins to assume responsibility?

Answer
A
$984.58
B
$4,280.00
C
$11,815.00
D
$14,417.92

Explanation

Jimmy’s family pays $685 each month, so over 12 months they pay $685 × 12 = $8,220. The plan requires them to pay $12,500 before insurance begins covering costs, leaving $12,500 − $8,220 = $4,280. The correct choice is $4,280.00.
