Notice Information

Notice Title

NHS Medway CCG Autistic Spectrum Conditions Diagnostic Assessment Service

Notice Description

The services awarded are to be provided to the patients covered by NHS Medway CCG. Services and must be provided from premises within the geographic area of Kent and Medway. Payment is based on individual completed diagnostic review and report. Contract value - this is a cost per case contract dependent on referral so the values can be higher or lower than the advertised averaging value. Due to the fluctuations in referral patterns, the contractual arrangement will be open to adjacent ( i.e. other Kent and Medway ) CCGs as a referral pathway in order to assist with maintaining service continuity for NHS Medway CCG patients and in turn adjacent CCGs. This will be on the basis that the adjacent CCG manage their own payment and referral process with the provider with no recourse to NHS Medway CCG other than the normal contractual monitoring requirement as lead commissioner. In turn, the provider remains responsible for managing patient flows in the most economic and efficient manner in order to reduce the likelihood of waiting lists developing due to insufficient allocated resource to meet demand. Individual CCG's remain responsible for their own performance information supplied in support of invoices or activity. The Commissioners have been supported and advised in the Procurement by NHS Commercial Solutions (NHS CS) Additional information: The Commissioners have been supported and advised in the Procurement by NHS Commercial Solutions (NHS CS). The tender was conducted via the NHS Commercial Solutions Bravo e tendering system.
