That's a great question and a very good observation. Especially on the far left, at 14%, it looks like the proportion of products that B.C. is reimbursing hasn't changed compared to a decade ago. I had this conversation with a senior drug plan manager in B.C. a couple of weeks ago, and asked him just that. He said that of all of those drugs that are available elsewhere, closer to 30% are actually available. They're just not listed publicly. It's a matter of individual adjudication and getting special forms filled out by doctors. However, they are reimbursed. These just don't actually show up in this data source, which is IMS Brogan's health analytics, the PRA quarterly data source.
