Hello all, wonder if anyone has the idea how the expected cost is calculated for chronic disease? Does INZ times the annual cost by the expected remaining life expectancy?

(my bolding) So that COULD mean for life, or not, depending on the disease and the prognosis.In the case of chronic recurring medical conditions, the medical assessor will provide an opinion on whether, over the predicted course of the condition or group of conditions, there is a relatively high probability that the condition or group of conditions will require health services costing in excess of NZ$41,000.
