Due to the number of elective surgery procedures performed in the South West Health Region the response has been provided by groups of procedures, [see tabled paper no].
Data is provided for public hospitals in the South West Health Region which conducted elective surgery in 2012-13 and 2013-14. For 2012-13 and 2013-14 the following sites did not perform elective surgery: Harvey, Donnybrook, Boyup Brook, Pemberton, Nannup, and Augusta.
For patient confidentiality reasons, counts less than five have been suppressed. Therefore, for counts less than five the median wait times are not published (n.p.).
