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 | 27 days | 75% | 93 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 82 days | 59% | 312 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 280 days | 65% | 526 surgeries |
