DEDUCTIBLE
An amount subtracted from an individual's adjusted gross income to reduce the amount of taxable income. The amount you have to pay out-of-pocket for expenses before the insurance company will cover the remaining costs. For example, if you get into an accident and your medical expenses are $2,000 and your deductible is $300, then you would have to pay the $300 out-of-pocket first before the insurance company paid the remaining $1,700.
