abstract: "The issue of waiting lists for surgical procedures is not only highly political but of significant concern to the general public. In addition, in acute-care hospitals, large amounts of money are consumed by the theatre units, which is a key feature in the surgical waiting lists problem, so there are important financial issues associated with waiting lists." Watson and Landman (1994).
