Specialty watchlist
PSR Watchlist - Mental Health
A print-ready specialty snapshot for practice managers, built from published PSR determinations. Counts are shown as counts, with repayment figures only where recorded in the public spine.
Items under scrutiny
MBS items are ranked by simple published-determination mention count across the covered period; repayment medians use only determinations where a repayment amount is recorded.
