Norwegian term (edited):
eigedel
Selected
asset
This is probably a misspelling for 'eigedel' (bokmål:eiendel), which would be the correct word in nynorsk. -
'Eigendel' is what is known as 'egenandel' in bokmål, but I am quite confident that is not meant here.

Hmmm.. coming to think of it, htere *might* be cases where it could be correct spelled and thus mean own risk/deductible.
You should see form contect if this is posting of an asset and corresponding liability - in this case it is 'eigedel' and asset.
If, on the other hand, it involves a deductible amount for insurance, meidcal fees or otherwise, it could be 'eigendel' - meaning own risk/deductible.

: Agree totally, from the little context available would seem to be asset. Deductible (US Eng) or excess (UK Eng) don't really seem to fit here.

: Yes, asset because it is balanced by a balance sheet item. The context shows it refers to assets, not frikort, egenandeler etc. (http://www.telemarksforsking.no/mediafiler/fil.asp?id=1210)

Not sure if I'm barking up the wrong tree here. Most of the references I can find seem to refer to fees you pay for health care, physio., etc. before you qualify for an exemption card (frikort)
When you undergo a health check or receive medical treatment, you are obliged to pay a ‘user fee’ (in Norwegian = egenandel). Also see the nynorsk page of the reference below.

Based on this, I have no doubt whatsoever that this is a misspelling for 'eigedel' - thus meaning asset.
