Baseline Approach
1. Future Demand is based on demographic changes2. Establish current activity of PT services by patient age
band i.e how much does each condition create?3. Multiply (for each age band) the total population size
by activity rate to generate total activity4. Sum total activity over all bands5. Demand will be relative to 2014 baseline6. Assumption is that 2014 =Demand for the service
WDM question
•Does this approach make sense?•What are the PT conditions to include and where is the incidence data required?
How would you use the WDM tool in Northern Ireland?
