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 | 21 days | 93% | 1735 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 90 days | 51% | 1722 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 334 days | 73% | 1125 surgeries |
What is not here
