More Certainty for Elective Patients
The number of NZers with conditions that meet thresholds for elective surgery, but who do not have a guarantee of treatment, has fallen. Official health statistics show that in the 16 months to December last year, the number of patients who met electives thresholds, but who had not been given certainty that they would receive treatment, fell from 15,520 to 9,926 - a fall of 36 percent.
