• A quality improvement standard for managing 'long waiting' cancer patients on a 62-day pathway
• Any cancer patients waiting 104 days or more from referral to the first definitive treatment should be reviewed to identify any avoidable non-clinical delays
• An effective process should be in place to review such patient pathways and escalation approaches for delays which may have direct clinical significance and/or have resulted in a patient coming to harm due to those delays.
