comment on the Canada thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down in c/glp1canada · 1 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that is regulatory approval, not coverage.
Agreed — write the application against the published criteria rather than around them.
comment on reading tier 3 threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/glp1uk · 98 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that threshold is your ICB’s, not a national one. They differ and they change by year.

Cosigning on baseline. The panel I regret most is the one I did not take before starting.

comment on three years of special authorization threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/glp1canada · 1 points · 2 years ago

How long have you been on the list, and from what date?
