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 | 22 days | 99% | 506 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 76 days | 60% | 818 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 336 days | 60% | 889 surgeries |
