Highlights from this day

sharps_bin_sid — the criteria included a bmi threshold plus comorbidities when i read them, and they have been revised since, so check rather than trust me, not advice obviously 21:21
bpc_sceptic — ireland runs its own reimbursement system and as best i understood it a year ago the picture there was less generous than people expect 21:25
assay_not_purity — did anyone get a tier 3 referral without a bmi over 35 the honest position on uk policy is that it moved four times in the two years i have been paying attention 22:03
no_appetite_nia — anyone had a parcel stopped by border force and what actually happened next 22:24
