CON: 26.8% (-2.4)
LDEM: 21.5% (+15.9)

Looks like the changes were a load of rubbish.

'3% of patients accounted for 45% of costs' Careful-this sort of stat gets would-be NHS value engineers overexcited

I expect to hear this not very surprising stat being quoted as a killer fact in support of some terrible load of ideological garbage v soon.

I read it as meaning that very few patients are in the highest cost/need categories,or in other words have multiple complex morbidities.
