2026-27 Monthly Cancer Waiting Times Statistics

Latest statistics

Provisional

April 2026

Please note: Commissioner aggregations are derived from March 2026 mappings and do not reflect the updated April 2026 ICB structure (see the section below for these). As a result of a new sub-ICB organisation code, Frimley ICB is not included in this file. Data attributed to the new sub-ICB code is captured within ‘Unknowns’, meaning there is no impact on national aggregates.

The latest monthly statistics on waiting times for suspected and diagnosed cancer patients accessing NHS services were released on 11th June 2026 by NHS England according to the arrangements approved by the UK Statistics Authority.
