Please provide formulas
1 1 Use a VLOOKUP function in cell F25 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet to determine the appropriate Copayment for the first visit to a Primary Doctor. The Typeo in cell D25 is one of the parameters. Use absolute and relative references when appropriate 2 0.5 Reuse your formula in cell F25 and paste it down to complete the "Copayment" column of the table. In cell G25 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet calculate the Payment towards Deductible as the lesser (use the MIN function of the Claim Amount or the Deductible for the indicated Type. You will need to use a VLOOKUP function to determine the deductible for the indicated OType. 3 1.25 4 0.5 Reuse your formula in cell G25 and paste it down to complete the Payment towards Deductible column. 5 1.25 Coinsurance is a percentage applied to the amount of the claim in excess of the deductible. In cell H25 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet use VLOOKUP to find the applicable percentage for the Typeo of claim. Multiply that percentage times the greater of the claim amount less the deductible, or zero. You will need to use a VLOOKUP function to determine the deductible for the indicated Type. Reuse your formula in cell H25 and paste it down to complete the Coinsurance column 6 0.5 7 0.5 In 125 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet calculate the potential Cost to the Insured for the individual claim. This is the sum of the Copayment, the Payment towards the Deductible, and the Coinsurance. 8 0.25 Reuse your formula in cell 125 and paste it down to complete the Potential Cost column. 9 1.25 In Cell 325 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet calculate the running total of the cost to the insured after considering the annual maximum out-of-pocket cost by adding the current claim potential cost to the previous total and taking the lesser of that, and the annual maximum out-of-pocket. 10 0.5 Reuse your formula in cell J25 and paste it down to complete the Total Costr column. 11 0.5 Use the Sum function in cell E36 of the Catastrophe CoverageLowActivity worksheet to calculate the total of claim amounts. 12 0.5 In cell 336 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet, calculate the total of costs after limit to MAX out-of-pocket. Since the values in this field are a running total, the total cost is the value in column ) for the last claim. 13 0.5 Calculate the total premium cost in cell E19 of the CatastropheCoverageLowActivity worksheet.

The goals of ACA were to improve quality and affordability of health insurance coverage, reduce the number of people nationally without health insurance, and reduce the overall cost of health care. The ACA requires that everyone must have health insurance. Those who do not have health insurance as part of their employer provided benefits package must purchase health insurance on their own. Selecting the appropriate health insurance plan can be difficult, because insurance policies can be confusing and expensive. Individuals pay monthly premiums to maintain their health insurance coverage. Those who are covered under a health insurance plan save money on health-related services, like going to the doctor or having surgery. The insurance plan specifies the amount that the patient will pay for a specific service. This price is less than the price the medical provider (i.e. the doctor) charges for their services. The patient pays the specified amount to the medical provider at the time of service. The insurance company pays the difference between the actual cost of the service and the amount paid by the patient. Not all medical services are treated the same by insurance companies. Some services require the patient to to pay a copay (flat amount) for the services rendered. Other services require the patient to pay a percentage (coinsurance) of the total charges for the services rendered. Finally, insurance plans limit the total amount that a person pays a year for some services. This is called a deductible. Once the deductible is reached, the insurance pays 100% of the cost of those services. When shopping for an insurance plan; a consumer should consider the plan's premiums, copays, coinsurance, and deductible amounts. Some people go to the doctor more than others. Generally, those who go to the doctor more than others benefit from plans with higher premiums and lower copay, coinsurance, and deductible amounts. Those who rarely go to the doctor, benefit from plans with higher copay, coinsurance, and deductible amounts and lower premiums. Complete the tasks in this workbook to compare different insurance plan options and the amount of medical services a consumer expects to consume impacts the insurance buying decision.

The goals of ACA were to improve quality and affordability of health insurance coverage, reduce the number of people nationally without health insurance, and reduce the overall cost of health care. The ACA requires that everyone must have health insurance. Those who do not have health insurance as part of their employer provided benefits package must purchase health insurance on their own. Selecting the appropriate health insurance plan can be difficult, because insurance policies can be confusing and expensive. Individuals pay monthly premiums to maintain their health insurance coverage. Those who are covered under a health insurance plan save money on health-related services, like going to the doctor or having surgery. The insurance plan specifies the amount that the patient will pay for a specific service. This price is less than the price the medical provider (i.e. the doctor) charges for their services. The patient pays the specified amount to the medical provider at the time of service. The insurance company pays the difference between the actual cost of the service and the amount paid by the patient. Not all medical services are treated the same by insurance companies. Some services require the patient to to pay a copay (flat amount) for the services rendered. Other services require the patient to pay a percentage (coinsurance) of the total charges for the services rendered. Finally, insurance plans limit the total amount that a person pays a year for some services. This is called a deductible. Once the deductible is reached, the insurance pays 100% of the cost of those services. When shopping for an insurance plan; a consumer should consider the plan's premiums, copays, coinsurance, and deductible amounts. Some people go to the doctor more than others. Generally, those who go to the doctor more than others benefit from plans with higher premiums and lower copay, coinsurance, and deductible amounts. Those who rarely go to the doctor, benefit from plans with higher copay, coinsurance, and deductible amounts and lower premiums. Complete the tasks in this workbook to compare different insurance plan options and the amount of medical services a consumer expects to consume impacts the insurance buying decision.
