 <description>&lt;h2&gt;Waiting Times are much shorter than they used to be – are you Ready, Willing and Able to be treated?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If your GP refers you to hospital, you can expect to wait a &lt;b&gt;maximum of 18 weeks&lt;/b&gt; from the time you are referred to the date of your operation / treatment.&lt;/p&gt;

 <link>http://www.boahc.co.uk/news/2010/mar/changes-to-out-of-hours-service</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Press Release (from Wiltshire NHS)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;15 March 2010&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Changes to out-of-hours service&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What do you do if you need medical treatment after your GP’s surgery has shut? From April 1, NHS Wiltshire has commissioned a single provider, Wiltshire Medical Services, to run out-of-hours medical and dental services across the whole of Wiltshire. NHS Wiltshire is confident that the new service will offer a robust, consistent and high-quality service right across the county.&lt;/p&gt;
