Out of pocket exepenses in case of medical bills of $100000=$5000
Out of pocket exepenses in case of medical bills of $10000=$5000
Out of pocket exepenses in case of medical bills of $500=$500
Expected out of pocket expenses=1%*5000+19%*5000+60%*500=$1300
Insurance benefit in case of medical bills of $100000=100000-5000=$95000
Insurance benefit in case of medical bills of $10000=10000-5000=$5000
Insurance benefit in case of medical bills of $500=$0
Expected Insurance benefit=1%*95000+19%*5000+60%*0=$1900
Annual premium=1900*116%=$2204
Total expected expense in case of a insurance policy with $5000 deductible =1300+2204=$3504
Let us consider the case with full coverage
Insurance benefit in case of medical bills of $100000=$100000
Insurance benefit in case of medical bills of $10000=10000
Insurance benefit in case of medical bills of $500=500
Expected Insurance benefit=1%*100000+19%*10000+60%*500=$3200
Annual premium=3200*116%=$3712
Total expected expense in case of a insurance policy with full coverage =0+$3712=$3712
We can see that expected expense is more in case of full coverage. I will go for $5000 deductible policy

This means that out of 100 flips you should get 50 heads and 50 tails. However, if you actually flip a coin 100 times, a 50:50 ratio is only one among many possible outcomes. What if you get a ratio of 48 heads to 52 tails? How can we be certain that what...
