Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Health and Social Services
Within our programme for transforming and modernising planned care in Wales and reducing waiting lists I was very clear of the focus on children’s early diagnosis and treatment, and the need to reduce long waiting times.
My officials have been tracking this commitment through a subset of the national referral to treatment waiting times looking at RTT pathways related to children (0-18 years).
For Hywel Dda University Health Board while total waiting times for children’s pathways have increased by 4% comparing April 22 (4,549) to December 23 (4,740). The number of long waits over two years have improved by nearly 91%. From 383 in April 2022 to 35 end of December 23.
