A&E statistics 'worse than reported'

A&E statistics 'worse than reported' The official monthly accident and emergency figures in England for the final months of last year claim more than 85% of patients were treated or assessed within the four-hour target - but those figures are almost certainly wrong.

Estimates by NHS England - taking account of factors that have since come to light - suggests December's figure was 84.9%.

At the time, this would have been the worst on record, but February's figure was even lower. BBC News
