The cancellation of non-urgent procedures by Manx Care has left patients in a state of uncertainty, according to an MHK. As part of cost-saving measures, elective surgeries on the island have been reduced, and all non-urgent procedures in Liverpool and Manchester have been put on hold until 31 March. This move has sparked concerns about the impact on patient care and the healthcare system, with many patients facing uncertainty about their treatment plans. The changes are expected to have a significant effect on the health sector, with healthcare services and patient outcomes being closely monitored.
