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.
Relevant statistics on the John Hunter Hospital can be found in the Bureau
of Health Information Quarterly Report into Acute Emergency and Surgery
Performance (Jan-March 2015) which reported the average wait for ear, nose and
throat surgery at John Hunter Hospital was 36 days, down from 59 days in the
Jan-March 2011 quarter.
