Radiology Reporting from Hauora a Toi Bay of Plenty - Health New Zealand Outpatient Services are currently at 72% of reports dispatched within 48 hours (as from 1 July 2024). The delays in reporting are due to unexpected staff leave and unfilled positions, which have placed significant pressure on the service.
The GP liaison team is seeking further information on expected timeline improvements. In the meantime, please exercise additional caution with safety netting for patients requiring time-sensitive imaging, as some reports are taking longer than 48 hours.
