- Highlights • We use Norwegian register data on sickness absence and waiting time and treatment in specialist health care. • We model the effect of waiting times in specialist health care among Norwegian employees. • Waiting times for specialist health care does not have a substantial effect on the duration of sickness absence. • Reducing waiting times in specialist health care will probably not affect overall sickness absence.
