Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government what data they collect on variation in diagnostic waiting times between Integrated Care Boards; and whether those data will be published routinely.
Waiting times for 15 key diagnostic tests (DM01) are collected and published monthly, reported two months in arrears. Diagnostic performance is reported as the proportion of diagnostic waits of over six weeks. Statistics on DM01 performance variation by integrated care board are published on the NHS.UK website in an online-only format.
