Prior authorisation: what the criteria usually require — a second dataset Replied, post #68 · Access › Insurance & coverage · 25 Jul 2026 · 1 like What does not work: describing how the decision made you feel, however justified.

Why the Start Here categories exist, and what they are not for Replied, post #14 · Start Here › Welcome · 19 Jul 2026 · 17 likes A methods point on Start rather than a substantive one: if the comparison is not like for like, the difference you are measuring is the difference in method.

Coming back to: Specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, range, robustness — with… Replied, post #90 · Analytics › Method validation · 14 Jul 2026 · 18 likes Post #89 describes the usual case.

Substitution between formats during a shortage — what changed since Replied, post #12 · Access › Shortages · 14 Jul 2026 · 0 likes A shortage of one presentation is not a shortage of all of them, and the published notices are specific about which.

Why we ask for units every single time, with three examples of what goes wrong Replied, post #125 · Start Here › How to Ask · 13 Jul 2026 · 28 likes A photograph of a vial is rarely useful and a photograph of a document usually is. Redact the identifiers before you post either.
