Data Provider: Welsh Government sCAMHS patient pathways waiting for a first appointment by month and grouped weeks

Data Quality Notice - We have become aware that many health boards are progressively shifting to a Single Point of Access service model for mental health services whereby assessments for specialist Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) are being undertaken within the Local Primary Mental Health Support Service (LPMHSS) and data for this service is reported and published within the LPMHSS Mental Health Measure publication. This means that some health boards have stopped collecting specialist CAMHS waiting times data, which has been previously published in this output. We are therefore considering whether it is still valuable to users to continue publishing these statistics.
