THE proportion of cancer patients starting treatment within two months at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals Trust fell to a record low in February, figures reveal. As NHS performance against the two-month target also reached its lowest level nationally, Macmillan Cancer Support said the latest statistics reveal the enduring impact of the coronavirus pandemic on cancer services. NHS data shows that at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, just 57.7% of cancer patients started treatment within 62 days of an urgent GP referral in February. That was down from 69.8% in January, and the lowest rate since records began in 2009. It means 47 patients had waited longer than two months in February, and the trust fell far below the 85% target introduced over a decade ago.
