copayment
Fixed medical fee
A copayment is a fixed amount a patient pays for a medical service, with insurance covering the rest.
Often shortened to copay.
The amount varies by service type—a routine office visit might have a $20 copayment while an emergency room visit costs $100.
My copay for generic prescriptions is only five dollars.
