Medact flags 29 disputed entries as ministers weigh £330M deal's future

What the coverage shows

Both outlets center on the same discrepancy between the NHS’s claims of benefit and what trusts say about using Palantir’s platform. The Guardian foregrounds an exclusive and quotes a senior health official describing the gap as “very misleading,” while The Register frames the story around Medact’s challenge to 29 disputed entries and the wider context of ministers weighing a £330M deal.
