225 - JOHN HUNTER HOSPITAL WAIT TIME

Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Health

With reference to the Australian Medical Association's Public Hospital Report Card, which indicates that the John Hunter Hospital has failed to meet its target of having 90 percent of patients treated within four hours, achieving only 61 percent, what steps is the Government taking to address this shortfall?
Answer -

I am advised:

The AMA Public Hospital Report Card assesses the performance of public hospitals year on year, and their capacity to meet the community's need for hospital services, using data published by the Commonwealth.

The AMA's Public Hospital Report Card only looks at the states and territories as whole. Therefore statistics relating to John Hunter Hospital are not available in the Australian Medical Association's Public Hospital Report Card.

Information regarding the hospital's performance can be found in the latest Bureau of Health Information report.
