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 | 7 days | 90% | 39 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 70 days | 92% | 48 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 173 days | 97% | 170 surgeries |
