The sentence each figure was read from (33)

Read in full, publishes no figure

35 named sources were read in full on the dates shown and print no usable figure. They are counted, never filled in.

Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our 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).

33 of the 68 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 35 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; 96 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.

The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one asking price per practice listing, read off the broker's own listing page (the price a buyer is asked for the goodwill, fixtures and fittings, leasehold unless the page says freehold), filed by income mix (NHS, private, mixed) and region; the median, quartiles and range across listings are the index.

Goodwill-to-fees ratios and EBITDA multiples a broker or an attributed survey publishes are reported beside it, never in the same median, and an all-in cost for a worked practice (price + CQC fee + legal + finance) is computed from the index and the register

96 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
