Our joint vision is to recommission an Integrated Sexual & Reproductive Health Service (including outpatient HIV Treatment and Care). Medway Council in partnership with NHS England (the Contracting Authorities) is seeking suitably qualified and experienced organisation/s to provide this service.

Element 2 - a contract with NHS England for Adult HIV Treatment and Care Services delivered in accordance with the national service specification (https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/b06-spec-hiv-serv.pdf). . The annual budget of Element 2 is capped at PS529,722 per year. Element 1 will be procured using the Competitive Dialogue procedure to incorporate additional innovation into a well-established and effective service. Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) may apply to this opportunity. The contract start date will be 1 October 2023 for 5.5 (5 1/2) years with the option, at the discretion of the relevant contracting authorities to extend for a further 2 years.
