Are you ready to take control of your healthcare?
A record 7.47 million people are waiting to start routine hospital treatment, NHS figures, external for the end of May show - up from 7.42 million the previous month.
This is the highest number since records began for the NHS in England, in 2007.
Some 385,000 people have been waiting more than a year to start treatment.
Negative Impact on Health Outcomes for Elective Surgeries:
Longer waiting times for hip and knee replacement surgeries result in a statistically significant negative impact on health gains post-surgery. Each additional week of waiting reduces the effectiveness of these treatments, although the effect size is small at the individual level.
Harm to Patients Due to Prolonged Waiting Times:
Reports indicate that long waiting times for non-urgent treatments are causing patient suffering. Less than half of NHS trusts meet the 18-week waiting time standard for elective treatments.
Distortion of Clinical Priorities:
The introduction of maximum waiting time targets has led to a shift in prioritization, benefiting patients with longer waits at the expense of those who previously waited less. This change in prioritization can distort clinical priorities and potentially harm patients who might have been treated sooner under different circumstances.
Factors Contributing to Long Waits in Emergency Departments:
Long waits in emergency departments are influenced by several factors, including the age of the patient population, the proportion of patients leaving without treatment, higher death rates, and higher bed occupancy rates in hospitals.
The process involves five simple steps: assessing your current situation, identifying the quickest route to care, completing necessary documentation, submitting it to your GP, and receiving treatment from a provider with the framework of the NHS.
