The chart below shows the aggregate proportion of patients waiting for treatment who have been waiting for treatment for over 18 weeks at the chosen month end within a Sustainability and Transformation Partnership (STP). Patients waiting for treatment are identified with the STP on the basis of the commissioner of their treatment (not the provider).

The darker the colour of the bar the higher the absolute number of patients waiting over 18 weeks for treatment. The number of patients waiting over 18 weeks for treatment is shown at the top of each bar. The user can select an STP of interest and choose a month-end for which the waiting list data should be shown. Each bar represents the clinical specialty for which the patient is waiting for treatment.

You can interact with the chart by hovering over any data point to see the Tooltip, this can provide specific information on each data point.
