If the secondary insurance states that nothing is owed by the patient, you typically do not need to pay the copay on the primary insurance. However, it's best to verify this information with both insurance companies and the healthcare provider's billing department to ensure accuracy. This information can usually be found in the explanation of benefits (EOB) provided by your insurance companies or by contacting their customer service.
