In 2023, the median waiting time for prostatectomy in the UK was 33 days. The forecast for 2024 to 2028 indicates a consistent waiting time of 33 days each year. This reflects a stable outlook with no expected year-on-year variation or changes in the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period. The data suggests consistent healthcare service delivery regarding prostatectomy waiting times.
Future trends to watch for include potential policy changes, healthcare funding, and demographic shifts, which could impact waiting times. Innovations in medical technology and process efficiencies might also influence future service delivery capabilities.
