A suggestion for the meaning of "périiodique" We are talking here, apparently, about health-care costs; if this be so, then "periodic"/"périodique" refers to an accounting period. Given the fast rotation of patients, this could be monthly, and hence, what is viewed here could be a monthly change or a monthly breakdown.
