What does a copay cover?

Office visit copays cover the cost of your visit to either a specialist or non-specialist physician.  Usually, a plan will have a copay from $20-$50.

When paid, your copayment does not apply to your plans deductible or out-of-pocket expense limit.

Your copay will only covers the cost of what the physician charges for that particular office visit.  If you receive any immunizations or vaccines at the time of visit, they will be covered under the copay.  If the doctor requests any additional lab work or diagnostic tests, these will not be covered under the copay, and be an expense subject to your plans deductible and/or out-of-pocket expense.
