Hello!!

If Regina has paid her deductible and has a coinsurance of 20%, she will owe 20% of the allowed amount for the doctor visit.

20% of $100 is $20.

So, Regina will owe $20 for this visit. The correct answer is $20.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is B) $80! Here's how we calculated the answer:

First, we need to determine how much of the cost the insurance company will cover. The allowed amount for doctor visits is $100. Since the deductible has already been paid, we know that the insurance company will cover 20% of the allowed amount, or $20. This leaves the patient with the remaining 80% of the allowed amount, or $80, which is what she will owe for the visit.
