Ar ddechrau pandemig y coronafeirws ym mis Mawrth, cytunais i atal dros dro y gwaith o adrodd ar rai o Ystadegau Perfformiad y GIG er mwyn caniatáu i'r gwasanaeth ganolbwyntio ar ei ymateb i'r pandemig.


Heddiw, mae Llywodraeth Cymru'n mynd ati eto i gyhoeddi'r ystadegau hyn, yn unol â'r Cod Ymarfer ar gyfer Ystadegau. Mae hyn yn cynnwys data gofal wedi'i gynllunio ar gyfer amseroedd aros rhwng atgyfeiriad a thriniaeth, amseroedd aros diagnosteg a therapi ac amseroedd aros canser am bob mis rhwng mis Chwefror a mis Medi 2020, a data gofal wedi'i gynllunio newydd ar gyfer adrannau brys am bob mis rhwng mis Mawrth a mis Hydref 2020\.


Mae pandemig y coronafeirws wedi cael effaith sylweddol ar y GIG. Hoffwn gofnodi fy niolch hefyd i'r holl staff sydd wedi gweithio o dan bwysau aruthrol drwy gydol y flwyddyn hon i gofalu am bobl sydd â'r coronafeirws, tra'n rheoli galwadau arferol gofal iechyd hefyd yr un pryd. 


Ym mis Mawrth, cyhoeddais y câi'r holl weithgarwch cynlluniedig ei ohirio er mwyn caniatáu i'r byrddau iechyd baratoi ar gyfer y pandemig. Mae gofal brys, gan gynnwys canser a gofal brys wedi parhau drwy gydol y pandemig, lle'r oedd yn ddiogel gwneud hynny ac er lle gorau'r unigolyn.


Ers i'r ystadegau gofal wedi'i gynllunio diwethaf gael eu cyhoeddi ym mis Chwefror, mae nifer y bobl ar y rhestr aros wedi cynyddu, fel mewn mannau eraill yn y DU. Mae hyn i'w briodoli, yn rhannol, i'r mesurau ychwanegol sydd wedi'u sefydlu i atal y coronafeirws rhag lledaenu a sicrhau bod modd gweld a thrin pobl yn ddiogel. Mae pawb ar y rhestr aros yn cael ei adolygu gan ei glinigydd ac yn cael ei weld yn nhrefn blaenoriaeth glinigol.


Heddiw, byddwn hefyd yn cyhoeddi set newydd o fesurau arbrofol i bobl sy'n cael mynediad at ofal yn ein hadrannau brys. Mae'r rhain wedi'u cynllunio gyda staff rheng flaen.


Byddwn yn cyhoeddi'r mesurau newydd hyn, sy'n darparu darlun mwy cyfoethog o brofiad pobl mewn adrannau brys na'r targed presennol o bedair awr ar wefan Uned Comisiynu Cydweithredol Cenedlaethol GIG Cymru, yn yr un ffordd ag y cyhoeddir dangosyddion ansawdd ambiwlansys.


Y mesurau newydd yw’r amser rhwng cyrraedd adran frys hyd at frysbennu gan glinygydd; yr amser rhwng cyrraedd hyd at asesu gan uwch\-glinigydd sy'n gallu gwneud penderfyniad a lleoli cleifion yn dilyn diwedd eu triniaeth yn yr adran frys. 


O'u cyfuno â'r wybodaeth bresennol am faint o amser, ar gyfartaledd, a dreulir mewn adran frys, bydd y mesurau newydd hyn yn helpu uwch arweinwyr y GIG i ganolbwyntio adnoddau yn y lleoedd iawn, ar yr amser iawn, ac, yn y pen draw, yn achub mwy o fywydau.

At the outset of the coronavirus pandemic in March, I agreed to the suspension of the reporting of some NHS performance statistics to allow the service to focus on its response to the pandemic.


Today, the Welsh Government is resuming the publication of these statistics, in line with the Code of Practice for Statistics. This includes new planned care data for referral to treatment waits, diagnostic and therapy waits and cancer waiting times for all months between February and September 2020, and new unscheduled care data for emergency departments and ambulance services for all months between March and October 2020\.


The coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on the NHS. I would like to put on record again my thanks to all staff who have worked under immense pressure throughout this year to care for people with coronavirus, while also managing the normal demands for healthcare.


In March, I announced all planned activity would be postponed to enable health boards to prepare for the pandemic; urgent activity, including cancer and emergency care has continued throughout the pandemic, where it was safe to do so and in the best interest of the individual. 


Since the last planned care statistics were published in February, the number of people on the waiting list has increased, as they have elsewhere in the UK. This is due, in part, to the additional measures, which have been put in place to reduce the risk of coronavirus spreading and to ensure people can be seen and treated safely. Everyone on the waiting list is being reviewed by their clinician and seen in order of clinical priority.


Today, we will also publish a new set of experimental measures for people accessing care in our emergency departments. These have been designed with frontline staff.


We will publish these new measures, which provide a richer picture of people’s experience in emergency departments than the current four\-hour target on the NHS Wales National Collaborative Commission Unit website, in the same way the ambulance quality indicators are published.


The new measures are time from arrival at an emergency department to triage by a clinician; time from arrival to assessment by a senior clinical decision\-maker and disposition of patients following end\-of\-treatment in the emergency department.


When combined with the existing information about the average time spent in an emergency department, these new measures will help senior NHS leaders focus resources in the right places, at the right time to improve patient care and, ultimately, save more lives.
