Sheldon has a traditional health insurance plan. He has a $200 deductible. The level of co-insurance for his plan is 90/10, where 10 represents Sheldon’s portion. He does not have a co-payment. If Sheldon incurs a $1,500 hospital bill, how much money will the insurance company pay for the bill?

$1,170.00 He pays the first $200 deductible, which leaves $1300, then the insurance pays 90% of that, which is $1170

explanation:

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley; i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten, all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however, many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn; whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today, its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
