Coinsurance

Definition


Coinsurance (Canadian health, dental, property): A cost-sharing method in which the insurance company pays a stated percentage of each eligible expense and the policyholder pays the remaining percentage. The split is usually shown as a ratio—for example, 80/20 means the insurer pays 80% and the insured pays 20% up to any stated annual limit or deductible.
