Understanding to choose between copay and coinsurance

I started a new job and these choices are confusing for me especially since I don’t go to the doctor often and my previous insurance were just based on the copays available.

Plan A: $29 premium, $2,000 deductible, Primary Care: Ded then $30 copay

Plan B: $19 premium, $3,500 deductible, Primary Care: Ded then 20% coinsurance

Plan C: $47 premium, $3,000 deductible, Primary Care: $40 copay primary/$60 copay specialist

Prior to last year, I havent been to a doctor. Right now, I mainly use my insurance to see my therapist. When I calculated the cost therapy would be, it would be about 7 months with the $2000 deductible before I could start paying the cheaper copay based on how often I see her.

Is it something like “I can afford to pay $2000 before I start needing help to pay for medical stuff?” or “Since I dont go to the doctor often, paying $40 each visit wouldnt be so bad?”

Just hoping for some questions to ask myself as Im picking an insurance
