Making Cents out of a Blue Options HSA

Thursday, July 7th, 2011

Many people choose a copayment plan because they want the predictability of knowing exactly how much they will pay out of pocket for doctor visits and prescriptions. However, many people who purchase these plans don’t realize they are paying hundreds of dollars extra each year for the convenience of copayments. In a traditional copayment health plan, you generally pay for health care like this:

+ You pay a relatively high monthly premium for coverage.

+ When you see an in-network doctor for an office visit, you pay a copayment.

+ When you fill a prescription, you pay a copayment.

+ When you go to the hospital, have a procedure, or have lab tests, you pay a fee that is applied toward your deductible.

+ When you meet your deductible, you begin paying coinsurance, until you meet your coinsurance maximum for the year.
