About Co Payment Amount Calculator

Copayment is a fixed percentage of the admissible claim that you bear, applied after non-payable items are stripped out. Your real share is always higher than the stated copayment percentage, because consumables and non-medical items are excluded from the claim entirely.

Formulas

Admissible amount

Admissible = Claim amount - Non-payable items

Your copayment

Copayment = Admissible x Copayment %, subject to any cap

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do policies impose copayments?

To reduce moral hazard and lower the premium. Senior citizen and zone-based plans commonly mandate 10-30% copayment.

Can I avoid a copayment?

Some insurers offer a copayment waiver rider or a zone upgrade for an additional premium. Otherwise it is a policy condition.
