Patient Referral Flow
The Wales 111 website now provides information on waiting times by speciality at each health board in Wales. Whilst this will not tell you where you are on a waiting list it does provide up to date information on the range of current waiting times for the speciality and health board for which you are waiting for.
Anyone can access this information from the 111 website as a means of managing expectations and concerns around waiting times. https://111.wales.nhs.uk/PlannedCare/Default.aspx
