We have not got the full data yet for health status. This is just an acknowledgement towards health status but we need much more data in regard to chronic illness, etc. of the population to be able to have a much more accurate way to support the situation. This is only a temporary fix. I know it is not the most scientific but it is an acknowledgement towards the cost of the bed utilisation. It will be refined later in the year.
