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 | 98% | 89 surgeries |
| Semi-urgent | 41 days | 94% | 382 surgeries |
| Non-urgent | 204 days | 99% | 878 surgeries |
