That criterion is from the previous plan year. The current bulletin has different wording.

Has a peer-to-peer been offered or requested?
comment on my ferritin moved and I cannot work out whether FFMI is why in c/glp1muscle · 3 points · 1 year ago
Small fix — that is fat-free mass, not muscle mass. The scan cannot separate them the way the post assumes.
comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about certificate of analysis is guesswork in c/coa · 51 points · 1 year ago
Agreed on asking for the storage condition. It is one line and it changes how you read the entire stability claim.

Correcting myself upthread: I said the date was missing and it is on the second page, which I had not scrolled to.

Discharge from a specialist service at goal is a normal end point of that pathway. Whether prescribing continues in primary care afterwards is a local decision and is worth asking about at the start rather than at the end.

The shortage list is the legal hinge: the permissions that allow certain compounding to happen at scale are tied to a drug’s shortage status, which ch
Adding one thing — ask for the facility name. Most will give it, and the ones that will not have answered you.

the API source is the question nobody asks and everybody should

comment on goal — my 3-week log, condensed into one table in c/progresspics · 0 points · 1 year ago
Not convinced comparison helps here. The people posting the fastest results are the tail of a distribution, not the middle.
comment on [Discussion] private prescription is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/glp1uk · 1 points · 1 year ago
Not convinced — the US threads are a different system entirely and importing their advice here does real harm.
comment on [Discussion] we are measuring private prescription at the wrong time and calling it noise in c/glp1uk · 113 points · 1 year ago
Correction: that threshold is your ICB’s, not a national one. They differ and they change by year.
comment on help me understand progress, I have read the wiki twice in c/progresspics · 11 points · 1 year ago
Disagree that the pace matters as much as you think. Durable is better than fast and nobody posts about durable.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify FFMI in c/glp1muscle · -4 points · 1 year ago
How many weeks between the two scans?
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify FFMI in c/glp1muscle · 39 points · 1 year ago
resistance training first, cardio if there is time left
comment on help me understand telehealth, I have read the wiki twice in c/compounding · 1 points · 1 year ago
Not convinced. You are comparing a compounded concentration with a branded one and assuming they match.
comment on am I the only one who found struggle harder than the injections in c/progresspics · 17 points · 1 year ago
Stalled for 7 weeks and measured my waist out of stubbornness. It had moved. The scale had not.
comment on appeal — 4 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/insurancefights · 159 points · 2 years ago
the second-level appeal is where things actually turn
comment on how much of what we believe about batch actually comes from related substances threads in c/coa · 5 points · 2 years ago
identity and quantity are two questions and most documents answer one
comment on why does nobody talk about state board in c/compounding · 288 points · 2 years ago
Salt form matters for mass: a preparation specified as one salt and dosed as the free base gives you a different amount of peptide for the same number on the label.
comment on purity is the most under-discussed thing on this board in c/coa · 583 points · 2 years ago
That is the catalogue certificate rather than the batch-specific one. Same layout, completely different status.
comment on someone explain 503A to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/compounding · 5 points · 2 years ago
the shortage list is the whole legal hinge and people skip it
comment on [Question] Denmark — has anyone got a straight answer on 503B in c/compounding · 1 points · 2 years ago
Salt form matters for mass: a preparation specified as one salt and dosed as the free base gives you a different amount of peptide for the same number
Agreed — and the follow-up question is what the beyond-use date is based on.
comment on [Meta] the batch rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining in c/coa · 62 points · 2 years ago
Correction: that is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning, and the document says so if you read the row label.
comment on does formulary actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/insurancefights · -12 points · 2 years ago
Push back: your plan is an employer plan, which changes both the appeal path and who the regulator is.
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify formulary in c/insurancefights · 26 points · 2 years ago
prior authorisation criteria change every plan year
comment on [Lab] 16th independent test on WXT — 99.3% on a claimed 98.5%, and the trend is the interesting part in c/coa · 1 points · 2 years ago
Careful — "the metadata looks odd" is a reason to ask a question, not a conclusion. Re-issues are ordinary.

Ask what the stability statement was written against — temperature, light, and whether it was the lyophilised powder or the reconstituted solution. Those are three different claims.
