Performance

 

Performance against national standards. Throughout the country hospitals are struggling to meet national standards because of the effect of Covid. All are seeking to catch up on waiting lists which have substantially lengthened during the pandemic. However the Royal Surrey although, like most, is not yet meeting all national standards it is doing well compared with others. For example:

·         A&E 4 hour wait 8^th of 42 national STPs

·         18 week referral to treatment 6^th of 106 Clinical Commissioning Groups

·         referral to treatment waiting list size back to pre-Covid levels

·         52 day plus long waits steadily declining 1^st of 106 Clinical Commissioning Groups

·         Diagnostic waits over 6 weeks declining 6^th of 106 Clinical Commissioning Groups

·         Cancer 2 week wait from referral to being seen, compliant with national standard 18^th  of 106 Clinical Commissioning Groups

·         Cancer 62 day standard from referral to treatment 8^th of 106 Clinical Commissioning Groups

·         Cancer waits over 104 days reducing 10^th of 42 STPs

Let us hope that there is no further Covid peak to reverse these improvements
