Fis Ebrill y llynedd, gwnaethom osod targed i gael gwared â nifer y llwybrau cleifion sy’n aros mwy na blwyddyn am eu hapwyntiad claf allanol cyntaf erbyn 2022. Roeddem yn gwybod y byddai’n heriol, ond roeddem am weld byrddau iechyd yn canolbwyntio eu hymdrechion ar hyn. Rydym yn siomedig na chafodd y targed uchelgeisiol hwn, na osodwyd yn Lloegr, ei gyflawni.
In April last year we set a target to eliminate the number of patient pathways waiting for longer than a year for their first outpatient appointment by the end of 2022. We knew that this would be challenging, but we wanted to see a real focussed effort on this by health boards. We are disappointed that this ambitious target, which was not set in England, has not been met.
