my understanding ( which could be faulty!) is if we have had hospital treatment for bronchiectasis with the past year, then we get elevated higher up the list
if
like me
we have not seen inside a hospital for a few years, then we are on the same level as everyone else
and
dont know if England is the same as Scotland Wales or N Ireland though???
i phoned my local "british lung foundation" helpline
