Question 4 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science - PE201

What is a co-pay?

Answer
A
fixed percentage a patient must pay of the cost of a healthcare service
B
fixed amount of money a patient must pay directly to a healthcare provider
C
fixed amount of money a patient must pay for healthcare services every year before the insurance company will begin to pay

Explanation

A co-pay is a set dollar amount the patient pays for a particular healthcare service, such as a doctor’s visit. A fixed percentage of the service cost is coinsurance, while the yearly amount paid before insurance starts covering costs is a deductible. So the correct choice is “fixed amount of money a patient must pay directly to a healthcare provider.”
