Copayments and coinsurance charges are charges that beneficiaries pay when they receive a service. A copayment is a dollar amount that someone must pay when using a specific service. Coinsurance is similar to a copayment, but is expressed as a percent of the cost of the service received (rather than as a flat dollar amount).
