Notice Information

Notice Title

Adult Community Audiology Services - NHS/SOEPS/22.869 - RFI

Notice Description

NHS Sussex is seeking the views of Healthcare Providers on a range of proposed changes to the service specification and contractual arrangements for the Over-55s AQP Community Audiology Service. An RFI was previously published and closed in October 2022. This is a new RFI with an updated specification. This is a process designed to help the Commissioner form a view of the best way to commission the service and is not the beginning of a Tender exercise. A Tender advertisement will be issued in due course. Your feedback at this point will not have a bearing on any future Tender submissions you may wish to offer later. You will not be disadvantaged if you choose not to respond to this RFI, but it will be helpful to understand your views at this early stage and you are encouraged to respond as fully as you can. In addition to this RFI, NHS Sussex will be conducting a Provider Engagement event from 09:30 - 11:30 on Tuesday 24th January. Within that event we will talk through the main proposed changes and the session will include an opportunity for providers to ask questions of the commissioners. The event will take place via MS Teams. If you have not already been invited and wish to attend, please send a portal message and include the names and roles of persons in your organisation that you would like to be invited. Please complete your response and return via our E-Tendering Portal at https://intendhost.co.uk/soepscommissioning/aspx/Home no later than Monday 6th February at 09:30
