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 | 19 days | 98% | 2159 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 73 days | 74% | 2325 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 355 days | 62% | 851 surgeries |
What is not here
Public hospitals only. Private hospitals do not report to this collection, so their waiting times cannot be compared here.
