What Is Co-Payment in Visitor Insurance?

Explains how co-payment works and why it matters, especially for parents and senior citizens.

Co-payment means the insured person pays a fixed percentage of the medical bill.

If the co-payment is 20%, you pay 20% of the bill and the insurer pays the remaining 80%.

Senior citizen plans often include co-payment clauses.

Many people ignore co-payment while buying insurance and face surprises during claims.

Always check co-payment terms carefully.
