Red flag referrals (those most urgent) are the subject of a strict target – all must be seen within 14 days.  While individual Trusts have met this target, it has never been fully achieved regionally. All Trusts have had significant periods of time where performance has been unacceptable compared to the 14 day target. 

To relieve pressures, some women have been asked to travel to another Trust to receive their assessment – not for the ensuing treatment, if any. Out of hours ‘mega clinics’ have been utilised on evenings/weekends to assist with reducing the waiting list backlogs.  We would like to hear from women who have been affected by the mitigations put in place in the last 6 months to a year.
