Do you charge a copay for recheck visits?
Most doctors will charge a copay for a recheck. Copayments are paid on an individual basis and normally for each visit to the doctor.
What if the doctors usual charge is less than the copay can the doctor receive the full copay amount?
The doctor's charges and the copay are separate fees, of course. With that, even if the charges are less than the copay, the physician still collects the patient's copay. At anytime, the physician can waive, then write-off, the copay, but I wouldn't advise this.

That depends on 2 factors..1. is your doctor in your insurance company's network if no then yes he/she can charge you up to the billed charges subtracting what if anything your insurance company paid. 2. Is things like labs, x-rays and procedures covered under your copay or do they apply to your deductibles and coinsurance? When in doubt contact your insurance company

Will Alabama medicaid pay a primary insurance copay?
Medicaid will pay the copay only if the amount of the copay added to whatever the primary insurance paid is less than or equal to what Medicaid would allow for that charge to begin with. Like charge of $50 for a visit, and the copay is $10 and the primary insurance paid $3 and Medicaid allows $15 for that particular code. Then Medicaid would pay $12.00 of it. This is highly unlikely, though.

When you have a primary and secondary insurance will the co-pay from your primary insurance be paid by the secondary insurance?
I have insurance paid for by my employer (primary) and through my husband's employer (secondary). In my experience, I have never had to pay the copay required by my primary because it is covered by my secondary. When I first got married, 2 years ago, I still paid the copay, but the doctor's office would always send me a check for the copay a month later because the secondary paid it.
