Japanese term

後高齢本

Japanese to English Medical Insurance Patient release document
This term appears in a patent release document that is very similar to the following.

https://www.pref.tochigi.lg.jp/e02/welfare/iryou/documents/d...

It seems to be a reference to the insurance system for late-stage elderly (後期高齢者医療制度), not sure what 本 stands for however?

Thank you in advance for any input!

Japanese term (edited):
Selected

Insured/Subscriber himself/herself

「本」could mean 「本人」(Insured or Subscriber himself/herself) vs.「家」means 「家族」(Family member)
Then 「後高齢本」could mean 「後期高齢者医療制度加入者本人」(Insured/sbscriber himself/herself of the medical care system for elderly in the latter stage of life).
Note from asker:
Thank you, that makes a lot of sense! I was unable to ask in the same post due to the single term limit, but I was wondering if you've had a chance to look at my other related question here: https://www.proz.com/kudoz/japanese-to-english/insurance/7161403-%E5%8C%97%E4%B9%9D%E9%9A%9C.html
