RE:RE:Patient count increase I've never quite understood this part. If we had 8000 copd patients last year and have 8500 now how many have we added? Is it just 500?
Or did most of the poor folk who have this disease die during the year and get replaced - in which case we added about 8500 new. My understanding is that this is palliative so most die within 12 months.
if it's the latter, during Covid, then they have done very well. "Headwinds" just does not cover it.
