Thread: NHS Cancer Treatment Targets

"The current national cancer waiting time targets in England and Wales
apply to MM and SCC but exclude BCC, Bowen’s intraepidermal SCC and
other precancerous skin lesions. In England the target for patients with
MM and SCC referred through the 2-week urgent GP referral route is that
they must start their first definitive treatment within 62 days of GP
referral.7,8 For all other patients with SCC and MM in England the target is
that they must start their first definitive treatment within 31 days of the

decision to treat." NICE (2006)
