title: Targets. What's the diagnosis?
abstract: A maximum wait for diagnostics of four to six weeks will be needed to hit the 18-week waiting-time target. Independent-sector procurement remains key to increasing capacity, but there are disputes around how it should be used. Advanced practitioners could address the problem of the different disciplines working in silos.
