Urgency categories
Urgency figures cover all planned surgery at the hospital, not one procedure. They are never combined with the procedure figures. Your treating specialist assigns your urgency category — it is not something you choose.
| Urgency category | Median wait | Treated within the recommended time | Surgeries |
|---|---|---|---|
| Urgent | 5 days | 100% | 3343 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 76 days | 57% | 1723 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 315 days | 61% | 340 surgeries |
What is not here
Public hospitals only. Private hospitals do not report to this collection, so their waiting times cannot be compared here.
