Background

I think there is a crisis in long cardiology wait times. I've waited over 10 weeks for treatment, with an another 10 weeks expected. I believe the system's inefficiencies could worsen my health. Over 120,000 died in 2022 waiting for NHS care. I think immediate reform is essential

Additional details

I think the Government must provide funding to reduce urgent wait lists to 4-6 weeks and expand provider access. I think this is crucial for timely healthcare, protecting UK lives, and preventing further losses from systemic inefficiencies.
