Answer
NHS England does not routinely collect or publish condition‑specific waiting time data for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (PoTS).
Patients with suspected or confirmed PoTS are typically referred into broader secondary care services, such as cardiology, neurology, and general medicine, and waiting times are therefore recorded and managed at specialty level rather than by individual condition.
