Notice Description

This RFI exercise is being undertaken to engage with the market to inform the further development of draft proposals for the service delivery for Orthodontic Services across Greater Manchester. Orthodontics is the dental specialty concerned with facial growth, development of the dentition and occlusion, and the assessment, diagnosis, interception and treatment of malocclusions and facial irregularities. Orthodontic treatment should only be undertaken in situations where it is believed to be in the patient's best interests in terms of their oral health and/ or psychosocial wellbeing. In all situations, the clinical advantages and long-term benefits of Orthodontic treatment should justify such treatment and outweigh any detrimental effects.

The service will deliver orthodontic treatment to those patients up to the age of 18 years old with an Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN) as defined within Schedule 1, part 2, 4 (3) of the National Health Service (General Dental Services Contracts) Regulations 2005 and PDS equivalent (currently Dental Health Component 3 Aesthetic Component 6 or above). The service is aimed at those patients who require orthodontic procedures, defined in Section 1.5, that are not expected to be within the remit of general dental practitioners or hospital services. This RFI will be conducted via the NECS e-Tendering system (In-Tend) and as such there will be no hard copy documents issued to respondents and all communications between respondents and NECS will be conducted via the (In-Tend) Supplier Procurement Portal.
