Purpose of the NHS Graduate Scheme Mandatory requirement of the Department of Health (DoH) that no patient will endure a wait of longer than 13 weeks from being referred by their GP to commencement of outpatient treatment, and no longer than 18 weeks for inpatient treatment (usually surgery). There will be financial penalties for failure to comply and Mortonstone University Hospital, with average waits of 18 and 27 weeks respectively for outpatients and inpatients, has a long way to go. Therefore, we must take decisive action.
