Overview

Summary of dataset and variables

Historical information on cancer waiting times, reported by local health boards, for those patients newly diagnosed with cancer who have started definitive treatment during the month.

Data collection or calculation

From February 2021, data is only published for the suspected cancer pathway. Targets for the urgent and not via the urgent pathway have ceased and no new data will be collected or published for these pathways. The patients shown here are those treated via the non urgent route. The national target for these patients is: at least 98 per cent of patients newly diagnosed with cancer, not via the urgent route will start definitive treatment within 31 days of diagnosis (regardless of the referral route). Care should be taken when interpreting percentages, especially when dealing with small numbers.
