The Health Foundation revealed that long hospital waits left Britain among the “poorest-performing” in a survey of 10 countries.
It found that 11 per cent of people were waiting a year or more for a specialist appointment, while 19 per cent were waiting the same amount of time for non-emergency surgery. Only Canada reported similar figures.
