coinsurance

Patient pays percentage

Coinsurance is a form of insurance in which the insured party pays a fixed percentage of costs after meeting a deductible.

In health insurance, you might pay 20% coinsurance while your insurer covers 80%: After surgery, my coinsurance came to three thousand dollars.

In property insurance, coinsurance clauses require policyholders to insure property at a minimum percentage of its value or face reduced payouts.
