NHS Vale of York CCG and NHS Scarborough and Ryedale CCG are seeking providers to deliver the Minor Eye Conditions Service (MECS). NHS Vale of York is acting as lead commissioner for this procurement on behalf of NHS Vale of York CCG and NHS Scarborough and Ryedale CCG The aim of the service is to manage minor eye conditions in an optometrist-led community setting.
