Liam would have to pay $6216 in health care related fees this year. Option D is right

The total expenses that Liam's health would incur are:

Monthly premium at 248 * 12 months in a year

= 2976

52 visits to the specialist at 60 dollars

= 52*60

= $3120

3 Visits to the primary care physician at 40 dollars

= 3*40

= $120

Then Liam's total expenses would be =

$2976 + $120 + $3120

= $6216
