Every health region has a Surgical Care Coordinator (SCC). Call the SCC in the health region where your surgery is scheduled. They can:

• access patient information to try to resolve concerns about your wait time
• act as a liaison with specialists
• tell you if a hospital booking date is set
• provide an approximate wait time
• explain hospital procedures 

If you still have concerns about your wait for surgery, talk to your surgeon or family doctor.

If concerns about scheduling for surgery have not been resolved, call a Quality of Care Coordinator (QCC) for help.

Discuss your options with the physician who referred you to the specialist or your family doctor.

Discuss your options with your family doctor or physician who ordered the test, including whether you can receive services sooner in another health region.

If concerns are not resolved, talk to your health region's Quality of Care Coordinator (QCC).

If your diagnosis is uncertain, discuss your concerns with the physician who is looking after you (surgeon, oncologist or family doctor).

If you've been diagnosed with cancer and referred to the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency for treatment, call the Agency's Quality of Care Coordinator.
