Pa darged amser aros a osodwyd ar gyfer llawdriniaeth y geg ym Mwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr, a beth oedd nifer yr unigolion na welwyd o fewn y targed amser aros yn 2016/17, 2017/18, a 2018/19?
The waiting time target for oral surgery within Betsi Cadwaladr UHB is the same as for all Health Boards and specialities, i.e. for 95% of patients to be waiting less than 26 weeks from the date the referral letter was received in the hospital to the start of treatment, with no patient waiting over 36 weeks. The table below shows the number of patients who waited over the target time (closed pathway data).
| up to 26 wks | 26-36 wks | ov 36 wks | total seen | % within 26 weeks | |
| 2016/17 | 6,144 | 1,010 | 1,527 | 8,681 | 71% |
| 2017/18 | 8,686 | 1,142 | 1,597 | 11,425 | 76% |
| 2018/19 | 9,429 | 947 | 1,125 | 11,501 | 82% |
I am aware the health board has made use of outsourcing of patients to alternative providers over recent years and is looking to use in-sourcing of activity this year to reduce waiting times.
