Is this a fair Headline?
It is a step in the right direction to publish this data. The dashboard is here: https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=eyJrIjoiNTFmZjkyOWEtYWQyOS00ZTUzLWIzNjctM2M2MGVhNzIzZDgxIiwidCI6ImYwNTQ1MjZhLTZiY2MtNGE3OC05OTg0LWZhYTNmZjQ1NTViMCIsImMiOjl9
@mccarthymt7 I presume the dataset is complete and accurate. For some context, 15 years ago, in a public hospital clinic, for example, a consultant and 3 NCHDs would have an OPD of 60-80 people to see “scheduled” for a 3-4 hour clinic, that would routinely run for 6 hours. The consultant gave an opinion, and dictated a letter.
Today, many new consultants are in the clinic alone. They see all the patients, type their own letters, book the scans, request the molecular tests, arrange the follow up visits, and organise the interventions (e.g. chemotherapy appointments) by themselves. Being a consultant has become a different job.
