Insurance spreadsheet

Copper Contributor

Hi

I am trying to get the spreadsheet to give a sum of zero in the cell if the formula sums to a negative number or keep the positive number if it is greater than 0.

I am solving for how much the insurance company will pay.  

Scenario-

If the Amt billed to insurance is <Deductible then the patient will pay

If the Amt billed to insurance is >Deductible then Insurance will pay the amount over the deductible-coinsurance.  

After the deductible is paid by the patient, then they will owe the coinsurance % for the amount over the deductible and the insurance will pay the balance.

Example

$1357 billed to insurance

$500 Deductible 20% coinsurance

$1357-500 (pt amount of Ded)

$857 * 20% coinsurance =$171.40

Patient would pay $500 ded and $171.40 coinsurance for total of $671.40. 

Insurance would pay $685.60

 

If the Deductible was $5000 then $1357 would be billed and it would all be patient deductible.  

I cannot figure out how to make my spreadsheet work!

With MAX() you can prevent negative results from being displayed or that the result is zero.

For example:

 

=MAX(0,J9-J22-J24)
