Waiting list down

The NHS waiting list is 230,000 lower than July last year. The overall waiting list for September was 7.39 million (an estimated 6.24 million patients) down 15,845 compared to the previous month and 230,000 fewer than July 2024. Figures released also show the NHS is the busiest it has ever been heading into winter, ahead of industrial action and a likely spike in flu cases in the coming weeks.
