# Australian Capital Territory surgery waiting times

The public hospitals reporting planned-surgery waiting times under Australian Capital Territory in Australian Capital Territory.

Reference period 2024–25 (1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025) · released 28 May 2026.

3 public hospitals report planned-surgery waiting times under Australian Capital Territory. Each hospital's page carries every surgery it reports, ranked against the nearest alternatives — including hospitals outside this network, because a waiting list does not care who runs the hospital.

The source groups public hospitals into Local Hospital Networks — called local health districts in New South Wales, hospital and health services in Queensland, health services in Victoria and Western Australia, and networks elsewhere. The grouping is the source's own mapping, not this site's. The source publishes this network as "Australian Capital Territory".

## Hospitals of Australian Capital Territory

Public hospitals reporting planned surgery under Australian Capital Territory, 2024–25, by how many surgery types each reported. The urgent on-time share is the share of Category 1 patients treated within 30 days. Every figure was released on 2026-05-28.

Urgency figures cover all planned surgery at the hospital, not one procedure. They are never combined with the procedure figures. [What the urgency categories mean.](https://surgerywaits.au/urgency/)

## What is not here

Public hospitals only. Private hospitals do not report to this collection, so their waiting times cannot be compared here.

## Before you use these figures

Surgery Waits is not medical advice. It republishes official statistics about waiting times that have already happened, and it does not recommend any hospital, doctor or treatment. Your general practitioner (GP) and your treating specialist are the right people to help you decide what is appropriate for you.
