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. What the categories mean, and how every hospital compares.
| Urgency category | Median wait | Treated within the recommended time | Surgeries |
|---|---|---|---|
| Urgent | 5 days | 99% | 137 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 32 days | 95% | 217 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 147 days | 96% | 164 surgeries |
