Are you ready for the 18-week target?
Article Abstract:
The 18-week-delivery program or the 18-week-target, set out in The NHS Improvement Plan in 2004, aims to ensure that the patient's journey from general practitioner referral to the start of treatment is 18 weeks or less. The NHS hopes to achieve this plan by 2008 by designing a workforce to achieve this and adjust existing services and staffing.
