In a recent report, it has been revealed that there is variation seen in waiting times for elective cancer surgery at Australia?s public hospital. It was found in the myhospitals website that in comparison to the waiting times in for the treatment at Royal Price Alfred at Hospital in Sydney, The Canberra Hospital took a lot time last year, thereby making it all the more clear that there was variation existing in the waiting time for the treatment for elective cancer surgery for July 2010 to June 2011.
In comparison to median waiting time of 31 days at The Canberra Hospital for elective bladder cancer surgery, it was found that 41 days are taken at Calvary Public Hospital, while The Royal Prince Alfred takes some seven days and 25 days are taken by the John Hunter Hospital in Newcastle.
In response to the same, Federal Health Minister Tanya Plibersek claimed that there would soon be benchmarks set for hospitals so that their performance can be tracked. ??The length of time patients wait for surgery to treat cancer can make a critical difference to their wellbeing?, added the Federal Health Minister.
There is need to provide patients the best possible healthcare services no matter how this entire matter is being dealt with.
