  1. A patient is billed $1,240 for a procedure. Their insurance pays 80% of the allowed amount of $1,000. How much does the patient owe after insurance pays?

    Answer: $200

    Insurance pays 80% of $1,000 = $800; the patient owes the remaining 20% = $200 (the $240 balance above allowed is typically adjusted off).

  2. A provider sees 18 patients on Monday, 22 on Tuesday, and 16 on Wednesday. What is the average number of patients seen per day?

    Answer: 18.67

    Total patients = 18 + 22 + 16 = 56; average = 56 ÷ 3 ≈ 18.67.

  3. A medication order reads: give 0.5 mg. The vial contains 2 mg per mL. How many mL should be administered?

    Answer: 0.25 mL

    Volume = dose ÷ concentration = 0.5 mg ÷ 2 mg/mL = 0.25 mL.

  4. A clinic's monthly supply budget is $4,800. They spend $1,200 on week 1, $900 on week 2, and $1,100 on week 3. How much is left for week 4?

    Answer: $1,600

    Spent so far = $1,200 + $900 + $1,100 = $3,200; remaining = $4,800 − $3,200 = $1,600.

  5. If an RVU for a procedure is 2.5 and the conversion factor is $36.04, what is the payment amount?

    Answer: $90.10

    Payment = RVU × conversion factor = 2.5 × $36.04 = $90.10.

  6. A patient's bill is $750. A 12% contractual adjustment is applied. What is the adjusted amount billed?

    Answer: $660

    Adjustment = 12% × $750 = $90; adjusted amount = $750 − $90 = $660.

  7. A physician works 45 hours per week and sees patients for 70% of that time. How many hours per week are spent with patients?

    Answer: 31.5 hours

    Patient hours = 70% × 45 = 0.70 × 45 = 31.5 hours.
