Question

with a certain medical insurance policy, the customer must pay first pay an annual $250 deductible, and then the policy covers 60% of the cost of x-rays. the first insurance claims for a specific year submitted by a person srentit two x-rays. the first x-ray cost $700, and the second x-ray cost $990. how much, in total will he need to pay for these x-ray?

Answer 1

Given:

Deductible annual payment = $250

The policy covers 60% of x-rays cost = 0.6 of x-rays cost.

Cost of x-ray 1 = $700

Cost of x-ray 2 = $990

Total cost of xrays = $700 + $990 = $1690

To find the total amount the person will pay, we have:

`\begin{gathered} T=250+(1690-(0.6\ast1690)) \\ \\ T=250+(1690(1-0.6))^{} \\ \\ T=250+(1690\ast0.4) \\ \\ T=250+676 \\ \\ T=\text{ 926} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the total amount he will need to pay for these x-ray is $926
