Patient Panel into New Cancer Wait Times Standard
We held a Patient Panel on the New Cancer Wait Times Standard and the effects it will have on patients in the City and North East London.
From the 1 October 2023, changes have been made to cancer waiting times with the two weeks wait standard being removed and the remaining waiting times standards to be rationalised into three core measures. We were joined by Wayne Douglas, who is the lead for diagnosis and treatment at the NHS North East London Cancer Alliance, who explained these changes and answered questions and any of the concerns that came up when discussing the new changes.
