NHS Targets
NHS targets are performance measures used by NHS England, NHS Scotland, NHS Wales, and the Health and Social Care service in Northern Ireland. These vary by country but assess the performance of each health service against measures such as 5 hour waiting times in Accident and Emergency departments, weeks to receive an appointment and/or treatment, and performance in specific departments such as oncology. History The Major Conservative government first set public targets for the NHS in the 1990s β for example, guaranteeing a maximum two-year wait for non-emergency surgery and reducing rates of death from specific diseases. The subsequent Labour government introduced far more targets and managed performance far more aggressively - a management regime sometimes referred to as 'targets and terror'. Targets were blamed for distorting clinical priorities, and in particular for one organisation achieving a target at the expense of another. For example, ambulances have been forced to ...
