copays

Insurance visit fees

Copays are fixed amounts a patient pays for medical services or prescriptions, with insurance covering the rest.

A doctor visit might require a twenty-dollar copay; a prescription might be ten.

The amounts vary by plan and service type.

My copay for specialists is higher than for my primary care doctor.
