5.  ACTIVITY AND PERFORMANCE

5.1.28  Could the Department provide a breakdown of waiting times for (a) mental health outpatient appointments and (b) Cognitive Behavioural Therapy appointments for the past ten years, broken down by PCT area? (Q67)

Answer

  1.  The information requested is given in table 67a, and in tables 67b and 67c (not printed, available at http:/www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmselect/cmhealth/269/excel/excel.htm). However, there are no separate data available on cognitive behavioural therapy appointments, and therefore the information given relates to waiting times for mental health specialties.

  2.  Data are sourced from the QM08 quarterly return. These are national statistics.

  3.  As at 30 September 2007, there were no patients waiting over 13 weeks for a first outpatient appointment for a mental health specialty, compared to 739 in March 2003.

  4.  The median waiting time for a mental health appointment has fallen from 3.8 weeks in March 2005 to 2.8 weeks in September 2007.

  5.  Data by PCT are only available back to 2003. As part of a recent review of data burdens, and in order to collect new data on referral to treatment, the Department no longer collects data on outpatients waiting times by specialty. Therefore, waiting times for mental health are not available from September 2007.
