Notice Description

There is an existing Community Ophthalmology Service in place which will reach the end of its contract term by late September 2019 which the CCG would like to re-commission. If a competitive procurement process were to take place, this will likely commence by February 2019. Documents attached provide details of the scope of the service - a draft Service Specification and an accompanying Memorandum of Information providing the context for this service. Whilst subject to change, the CCG's current intention is to offer a contract for 3 years (with the option to extend this by up to 2 years), with a new service commencing from late September 2019.

Please email your completed response to ekkehard_kugler@nhs.net inserting within the email subject field "Market Engagement Response - Brent CCG Community Ophthalmology".
