NHS 6 week diagnostic pathway

[trackrunner 10]

Has anyone got any information on the 6 week diagnostic pathway.

I need the information for a job interview, I've done all the other research for the post but can't find this.

Any help appreciated

might help, do they mean the max 6 weeks wait for diagnostic tests? I dunno.

Think I'll just make a sneaky call to the department and ask

Yes, I think that it refers to the expectation that no more than 1% of patients should wait no longer than 6 weeks for a diagnostic test
