On the elective care programme, which is a good concept, what is the average waiting time for a surgical procedure in the surgical hubs?
On average, what is the waiting time for a surgical procedure in these hubs? People contact our office about surgeries that are sometimes not for four or five years. That is not a good timeframe. The concept of the hubs is to address capacity and waiting times. When these hubs are in place, what percentage will they take from waiting lists?
