Formula Used

1) Net premiums

Annual Premium (Net) = max(0, (Monthly Premium − Employer Support)) × 12

2) Copays estimate

Copays = Σ(Visits × Copay)

3) Deductible + coinsurance estimate

Charges Subject = Rx Allowed + Other Allowed
Deductible Paid = min(Charges Subject, Deductible)
Coinsurance Paid = max(0, Charges Subject − Deductible) × Coinsurance Rate

4) Out-of-pocket cap

Out-of-Pocket = min(Copays + Deductible Paid + Coinsurance Paid, Out-of-Pocket Maximum)

5) Tax benefit estimate

Tax Benefit = (Employee Contribution + Employer Contribution) × Marginal Tax Rate

6) Net annual cost

Net Cost = Annual Premium (Net) + Out-of-Pocket − Credits − Tax Benefit

Optimized scenario applies your entered savings percentages to premiums, visits, and allowed charges.
