Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
25 of the 50 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 25 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 216 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
Derivation as chartered: the median, quartiles and full range of the published self-pay guide price for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy across every UK private hospital that publishes one, cut by hospital, by group and by region - plus what each package contains (consultant fee in or out, anaesthetist, diagnostics, overnight stay, aftercare, the separate consultation fee) scored the same way for every hospital, and the movement of each hospital's own figure between dated reads.
The groups publish a price per hospital and never a comparison; the aggregators publish one national average over an undisclosed set.
Neither answers 'which hospital near me is cheapest and what does that price actually include', which is the derivation.
216 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
