New CIHI data on wait times

The latest numbers released from the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) show how wait times for priority procedures — including knee and hip replacements — were impacted between April 2020 and September 2021.

For joint replacements, about 62% of patients across Canada were treated within the recommended time frame (182 days) between October 2020 and September 2021, compared with 71% in the pre-pandemic period.
