Health minister says improvements will be made based on quarterly figures
Plans are afoot to improve patient waiting times in the Isle of Man - with a model being assembled based purely on Manx figures.
That's the commitment made by the Health and Social Care Minister Kate Beecroft - as figures released last week show targets missed by in and outpatient departments.
The DHSC will publish figures quarterly in an attempt to determine areas most in need of attention - the move is part of its five-year efficency strategy.
That's expected to improve the provision for patients - and Mrs Beecroft says it's already clear how many issues can be cleared up; she gives us an example:
Photo ID requirements could create 'faff' at borders, says Steam Packet boss
DHSC minister 'absolutely committed' to reopening Ramsey hospital
Enterprise minister 'optimistic' following challenging period for tourism sector
Plans to protect Douglas Head to be laid before Tynwald in May
