Japanese term

自課

Japanese to English Medical Accounting
I am translating a 医療費請求書and 領収書, and a 診療明細書 for the same person.
Both refer to the type of insurance as 自課5.
Does anybody have any ideas? Was this paid privately by the patient?
Proposed translations (English)

Copay taxable 5

I have seen things like this used in accounting/billing as shorthand for bill types.

If the date of the receipt is prior to the consumption tax increase, the 課5 to me suggests 課[税]5[%] and the 自 may refer to the taxable amount being the 自己負担 portion.

Just an idea, but hope it helps.
Note from asker:
That's consistent with other parts of the documentation- thanks!
