Surgery Waits

Neurosurgery in Tasmania

Neurosurgery in Tasmania: planned surgery waiting times at public hospitals, with the national figures beside them. Public hospitals in Tasmania that published a median wait in 2024–25: 1.

A specialty covers many operations. Its figures describe all the patients treated under the specialty, and say nothing about one operation.

Hospitals in Tasmania

The shortest median wait comes first. A hospital with no published median wait follows, in name order, and has no rank.

A rank compares a hospital with every public hospital in Australia that published the same figure for the same period. The page shows a rank only on a current published figure. It never ranks a withheld or unreported figure. It also never ranks a figure from an earlier period.

Each chart shows one figure for each year the source published it. A year with no published figure is a gap in the line, and the table under the chart gives the reason.

The charts show Australia and Tasmania.

What this page leaves out

Private hospitals are excluded. This page covers public hospitals only, so it shows no private hospital.

Before you use these figures

Surgery Waits is not medical advice. Your general practitioner and your treating specialist can help you decide what is right for you.
