Co-Pay: What It Means And How It Works

So let's put that slide back up. And let's look at some of the other terms for health insurance, what is a co-pay?

So each time you seek care, so if you go to see a doctor, you're going to pay a small amount so at Methodist Le Bonheur to go and see your primary doctor a regular visit would be $10 co-pay. If you wanted to see a specialist provider, you might pay a $50 copay for that visit. So it's a portion that you pay each time you seek care.

Okay, thank you, Angie.
