Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Community-based Anticoagulation Services" is being conducted by Attain Commissioning Services Limited on behalf of the NHS Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (BCCG). This initiative is classified under the health services category and is located in various localities within Bedfordshire, East of England. Currently in the planning stage, the engagement for potential providers is set to conclude on 23 February 2018, with the e-procurement process expected to commence shortly after this date. The intention is to secure additional capacity for community-based anticoagulation services as the BCCG has identified areas lacking sufficient coverage.

This procurement opportunity presents substantial business growth prospects, particularly for healthcare providers specialising in anticoagulation therapy. Businesses that can manage a significant caseload, offer hour-flexible services, and provide a comprehensive 'one-stop' service model, including testing and dosage adjustments, will be well-positioned to compete. Providers with the capacity to deliver care across the designated localities, including Bedford and surrounding regions, will find this tender especially relevant. The anticipated contract duration is for 24 months, with a potential extension, allowing businesses to secure stable revenue streams from delivering essential health services.

Notice Title

Community-based Anticoagulation Services

Notice Description

NHS Bedfordshire CCG (BCCG), is planning to run an Any Qualified Provider (AQP), procurement process starting in the next few weeks to secure more capacity for community-based anticoagulation services in a number of localities in Bedfordshire. There are already about 25 GP practices that monitor INR levels for their own patients on warfarin. However, BCCG have identified some communities where there is inadequate or no local coverage. It should be noted that * The existing contracts with GP practices, the Bedford Warfarin Service and at acute hospitals that cover the current anticoagulation service will remain in place. * BCCG anticipate building capacity to the level of 1000 extra patient caseload. * That any new provider would need to manage at least a caseload of greater than 40 patients. Localities have been identified where this is possible. * That the service provided would be a level 4 and 'one-stop' service, i.e. that the provider must be able to sample, test, and adjust dosage of warfarin all at one visit, and communicate changes to the patient's GP. * That access outside of 'office hours' and 'drop-in' appointments are an essential requirement. * Services will be required in the following localities- Bedford :- Bedford town (north of river) , Bedford town (south of river) , Clapham, Kempston .
