Suma descontable: Suma inicial no cubierta por el seguro.
The amount of covered expenses incurred each calendar year before the plan starts to pay a percentage of the expense. For example, if the plan has a $360 deductible, the insured person pays the first $360 of the covered expenses each year. This is called "satisfying or meeting the deductible." Once the deductible is met, the plan pays part of subsequent covered expenses (resulting in the plan's benefit) and the insured person pays the rest (copayment).
