Health insurance Plan A requires the insured to pay $1000 or 50% of total cost, whichever is lower. Plan B requires the insured to pay the initial $300, but then pays 80% of the cost over $300. Which of the following is a cost level for which both insurance plans pay out the same amount? A. $600
B. $1000
C. $3800
D. $5300
E. $6200

C. $3,800

Explanation:

The computation of the cost level for both insurance policy is shown below:

We choose $1,000 or 50% which ever is lower

We take the help of the given options

a. For the first option

The 50% is 300 which is less than the 1,000 now we take 80% of ($600 - $300) that comes $240

b. For the second option

The 50% is 500 which is less than 500 now we take 80% of ($1,000 - $300) that comes $560

c. For the third optiion

The 50% of $3,800 i.e $1,900 and $1,000 whichever is less i.e ($3,800 - $1,000) = $2,800 so it is $1,000 now we take the 80% of ($3,800 - $300) i.e $2,800

Thus the amount comes same

Thus this is the right option
