The Hospital of Dénia It claims to have significantly reduced surgical waiting times over the past three years by optimizing care for patients requiring surgery. Specifically, the overall average surgical waiting time, according to its data, has reached 86 days a 30 June, 2026, which represents a reduction of 18,1% regarding the 105 days registered in June 2023.

One of the most significant advances is seen in patients classified as priority 1, whose clinical condition requires intervention within a maximum timeframe of 30 daysFor this group, the average delay has increased from 30 days en June 2023 only 12 days en June 2026, which represents a significant reduction of 60%.

The situation has also improved in the other priorities. Level 2 patients, for whom interventions are planned within a maximum timeframe of 90 days, have seen their average delay reduced by half, going from 100 days en June 2023 a 50 days en June 2026For its part, priority 3 has experienced an improvement, moving from 108 days average delay to 93 days during the same period.

Times below national standards

These results take on particular significance when compared with the maximum recommended waiting times established by the legislation governing the standardized treatment of waiting lists within the National Health System. According to the criteria set out in Royal Decree 605/2003, the maximum reference waiting times for priority 1 are a maximum of 30 daysand for priority 2, a term shorter than 90 daysPriority 3 allows for a delay in treatment, as the pathology does not produce significant sequelae.

In this regard, the Dénia center registers waiting times below the recommended standards at all three priority levels, guaranteeing a healthcare response tailored to patients' clinical needs. The reduction of the overall average waiting time to 86 days It highlights the ongoing commitment of the Dénia Health Department to improving accessibility to surgical procedures and optimizing care pathways.

Prioritizing care for the most critically ill patients has been one of the main objectives during this period, the hospital asserts. According to the hospital, the reorganization of resources and the planning of surgical procedures have significantly reduced response times and kept them below clinically recommended limits.
