以前、KudoZで「見舞金」は、consolatoryとの結論が出ていますが、保険の場合もこの言葉を使えるのでしょうか？
ざっと検索したところ、monetary tokenとしている場合も見かけます。

Japanese term (edited):
������
advance payment to cover out-of-pocket expenses
Because of the way things work in Japan's 村社会--take weddings and funerals, for example--alongside the "compensation for loss" there is this idea (knowledge) that the recipient needs CASH in a hurry. On a hospital visit, for example, one takes money because health insurance fails to cover a lot. (One needs 入院保険.) This money comes "with no string attached" as to guilt, responsibility, or liability. Moreover, failure to pay this money is taken as a lack of good faith (誠意) should things come to a suit.
