Having the same insurance company twice, as a primary and secondary, means you are paying twice for the same insurance policy. They probably will not cover the same thing twice, or they may treat it as two different policies and may treat it that way.
If they were two different policies, The primary would deal with any deductible and copay before fulfilling its contractual obligation and so would the secondary policy depending on the wording of the contract. Unless there is no deductible and copay, or if one policy covers the deductible/copy of the other, there will still be a balance you owe.
There is also the situation where your medical provider will not accept or fully participate in your insurance policy, in which case you may owe the difference between the doctors bling amount and what was paid by the insurance(s).
The remaining balance on your car insurance is the amount of money you still owe for coverage until the end of your policy period.

No. The secondary cardholder's credit history has nothing to do with the primary cardholder's. The reason for this is even if there are two cards, there is still only one account for both cards which the primary cardholder is responsible. Jags
You will need mortgage insurance as long as you still have a balance to pay on your mortgage, so in essence for as long as you have a mortgage.
You still owe the balance after the insurance money is paid, if there is a balance. You can only get rid of it, along with your other unsecured debts, by filing bankruptcy.
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.
Medicare is always the primary insurance unless someone is still working
The answer to this question depends on what kind of secondary insurance you have - is it a group health plan? Is it a supplement? If Medicare is primary, there are still deductibles, copays, coinsurance that would need to be satisfied by your secondary insurance. Based on your question, I'm assuming that you have a group health plan with a copayment as your secondary insurance. If so, then yes, you would pay your copayment but it would not exceed the part B deductible.
Often, a person will have "primary" insurance and "secondary" insurance. For example, if you have insurance through your job, and your husband has insurance through his job, then your primary insurance will be the one through your job, and your secondary insurance will be the one through your husband's job. Also, your husband's insurance through his job will be his primary, and yours through your job will be his secondary. There can be some exceptions to this though. For example, if you were married, had a child, then divorced and remarried (retaining custody of the child), and both your ex and current husbands have insurance through work, then the one who's birthday is first is considered the "primary" insurance, and the other is the "secondary" insurance. But there will still be a deductible with each one that has to be met before either one will pay.
When a patient has primary and secondary insurance plans and there is a CO Bcarve out clause on their secondary plan this is what happens. Primary pays their amount and secondary subtracts primary's payment from what they were suppose to pay and pays the difference. Example: Primary pays 50% of a filling which cost $100.00 and secondary pays 80%. Primary pays $50.00, secondary would pay $80.00, therefore, secondary would only pay $30.00 of the remaining $50.00. It is a very confusing issue and I have been in dental for over 25 years and I still have a hard time explaining this to patients.
Your insurance through your employer is your primary insurance, and your spouse's primary insurance is through his/her employer. If both husband and wife are insured on both insurance policies, then you have primary and secondary coverage. But you will still have to pay any deductibles and co-pays before either policy will pay. The deductible is the amount you first have to pay (usually at the first of the year) before the insurance will pay anything. The co-pay is your percentage of what the insurance doesn't pay, which for many health insurance companies is 80% for them and 20% for you. There is sometimes a co-insurance that you have to pay also. Ex: Insurance companies have a set amount that they pay for any office visit, procedure, etc. If the bill is over what the insurance pays, then you are responsible for the balance.
If the primary is listed as receiving 100% then they get 100% no matter what. If it is a split percentage between primary and secondary and the secondary is dead or unreachable, then that percentage goes to the insuredes estate. If their is just a primary and no secondary listed, then the primary gets it all as long as they are still living. The secondary is a mute point. Primary always trumps secondary if listed as 100%
Yes. By your contract with the secondary insurance you are required to write-off the discount
Since your insurance might not cover the balance you still have on your financed car, GAP insurance protects the balance of your loan in the event of an accident.
the primary wall can still grow with the cell, while once the secondary wall is created the cell can no longer grow. Even after the cell dies, the secondary wall will remain.
