Final study sample of included injured workers with knee surgery between 1999 and 2001, by surgical setting and expedited status (n=1,380)
| Surgical Setting | ||
|---|---|---|
| Public hospital | Private clinic | |
| Expedited surgery | 568 (41.2%) | 574 (41.6%) |
| Non-expedited surgery | 238 (17.2%) | NA1 |
1 There were no cases of private non-expedited care because private clinics (generally) perform only expedited surgeries.
