## Understanding Health Insurance Costs

Your total health insurance cost includes:

1. **Premiums**: Fixed monthly payments regardless of care used
2. **Deductible**: Amount you pay before insurance kicks in
3. **Coinsurance**: Your percentage share after meeting the deductible
4. **Out-of-pocket maximum**: Annual cap on your total spending

### Total Cost = Annual Premiums + min(Deductible + Coinsurance, OOP Max)

Lösungsbeispiel

$450/month premium, $2,000 deductible, 20% coinsurance, $5,000 expected bills.

  1. Annual premiums = $450 x 12 = $5,400
  2. You pay first $2,000 (deductible)
  3. Remaining $3,000 x 20% = $600 coinsurance
  4. Out-of-pocket = $2,000 + $600 = $2,600
  5. Total annual cost = $5,400 + $2,600 = $8,000
