Why this page exists

This page combines facts that neither the organisation page nor the England specialty page shows on its own: the current published figure for this one service at this one organisation; how that figure has moved over the months we hold; the England figure for the same service in the same month; the published median wait and 52-week count for this list; the other services this organisation reports. This service accounts for 10% of everyone waiting at The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
