Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Insurance / Insurance policy for medical supply company

Spanish term or phrase: cotización

The term occurs repeatedly in an insurance policy for a medical supply company, and clearly refers to the monetary amount due in payment for said policy. The glossary offers numerous entries with the translation "quote", "quotation," "price" or "rate," none of which seem to fit here. What does seem to intuitively fit is "premium" (which, at least in the glossaries on this site, is typically translated "prima").

For some context, here are a series of headers and sub-headers in the policy (written in Peninsular Spanish):

Modalidades de la determinación de la cotización neta anual

Disposiciones aplicables a los contratos cuya cotización está basada en un elemento variable

Cotización ajustable

Cotización provisional

Thank you.

Asker: Thank you, Mariela. It seems hard to conceive it as meaning anything else in such a context. Thanks also for your clarification yesterday re "siniestro."
