Wrth i’r gwasanaeth iechyd barhau i adfer o’r pandemig, a mwy o bobl yn dod ymlaen â phryderon iechyd, rydym wedi gweld y nifer uchaf o atgyfeiriadau am apwyntiad claf allanol cyntaf ers mis Ionawr 2020, gydag ychydig dros 115,000 o atgyfeiriadau wedi’u gwneud ym mis Mawrth. Mae’r cynnydd hwn yn helpu i egluro pam mae cyfanswm maint y rhestrau aros wedi cynyddu 1.4% ers y mis blaenorol. Dylid nodi bod lefelau gweithgarwch ar gyfer triniaeth a chleifion allanol ar eu huchaf ers dechrau’r pandemig.
As the health service continues to recover from the pandemic, and more people are coming forward with health concerns, we have seen the highest number of referrals for a first outpatient appointment since January 2020, with just over 115,000 referrals made in March. This increase in referrals helps to explain why the total waiting lists size increased by 1.4% on the previous month. It should be noted that activity levels for treatment and outpatients are  at their highest level since the start of the pandemic.
