Extended access should include the following elements: * Working at scale * Integration with other providers to maximise existing infrastructure, minimise set up costs and collaborative approaches to ensure clinical capacity is sufficient * Provision of routine (pre-bookable) and urgent (same day) appointments for all patients registered with a NKCCG member practice which should include pro-rota allocation of appointments per practice per day * Direct booking available to all NKCCG member practices, Local Care Direct, PC Streaming and NHS111 - other organisations may be added * A range of services to meet the needs of the local population as identified through patient engagement * A range of appointment types and clinical staffing * Be operational 365 days a year Location of services should take into consideration: * Outcome of patient survey * Is there parking? * Are there good public transport links? * Is there access to a pharmacy during all opening hours? If not how far would a patient have to travel? * Is the building fully accessible for patients with additional needs? * Would existing IT infrastructure be sufficient for additional services to be run from the building? * Is there a reception area and enough clinical space/ rooms to deliver the service now and in the future? Any potential locations will be subject to agreement with the CCG prior to service delivery.

Details of any experience you have in delivering/managing similar services and integration with other health care providers 2. Examples of engagement with NKCCG patients and member practices and plans of future engagement 3. Examples of working collaboratively with NKCCG member practices and other providers and any plans for future collaboration 4. Details of how the provider will market the service to patients 5. As part of your response you must upload a proposed lead provider extended access service model including: * Location of services (taking into account locally set requirements as per description of service) * Timing of appointments (subject to outcome of further engagement work) * Clinical skill mix/workforce plan for delivering appointments * Recognition of patient and GP member practice feedback and engagement plan * Provision of direct booking * Use of existing infrastructure including IT and estates If you would like to submit a response for this service, please express your interest by registering on the e-procurement portal website: www.nhssourcing.co.uk, reference number pqq_29396.

For further information please contact brenda.powell@greaterhuddersfieldccg.nhs.uk. Please note that an expression of interest in delivering the extended access service is not a tender response. An expression of interest is no indication of a commitment to participate in the tender process nor does it infer any special status on those providers who do submit an interest. The market response will be used to inform the commissioner's view as to any future process to select the most suitable provider to meet its commissioning intentions. This expression of interest does not commit North Kirklees CCG to undertake the procurement of the extended access service.
