Notice Information
Notice Title
Provision of primary medical services at Neath Hill Health Centre, Milton Keynes
Notice Description
NHS Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes Integrated Care Board (BLMK ICB) (referred to as the Commissioner) is inviting suitably qualified and experienced providers, who currently hold a general medical services (GMS) contract to express interest in delivering primary medical services for Neath Hill Health Centre as a branch surgery, by responding to this opportunity as required and described in this notice, and within the published tender. NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands CSU (AGCSU) is acting as an agent for and on behalf of the Commissioner and is supporting the procurement process.<br/><br/>The ICB has decided the most appropriate way to achieve this aim is to offer this practice as a branch surgery with patient list to providers holding a current GMS contract, thus retaining the current premises with managed list dispersal to the successful bidder. Practices outside the BLMK area will need to ensure they have their home ICB's support for this opportunity.
Lot Information
Lot 1
The Commissioner has made a strategic decision not to reprocure practices with a weighted list size below approximately 10,000 patients as stand-alone APMS contracts, and to look at alternative contracting models. This is intended to ensure robust, resilient, and high-quality services for the population in the longer term, as the Commissioner has found that smaller practices operated under APMS contracts in this area have frequently struggled with resilience and recruitment issues.
Neath Hill Health Centre has an actual patient list size of 4,008 (weighted 3608.07) as of January 2023. The ICB has a strong desire that the current premises located at 1 Tower Crescent, Neath Hill, Milton Keynes, MK14 6JY, are maintained within primary care ensuring adequate access, capacity, and resilience for general practice services.
As a branch of the successful bidder's existing GMS contract, the annual contract value represented by the branch surgery will reflect global sum rates. Further information can be found within the procurement document (Document 1 section 1.4). It is anticipated that the service provision resultant of this procurement will have the following estimated baseline contract values (excluding directed enhanced services, QoF, PCN and other income streams) at 2022-23 prices of between PS340,000 and PS360,000 per annum. Future years will reflect any nationally agreed uplifts, updated patient list sizes etc. Please also note in terms of contract length, this is a GMS, meaning it will be held in perpetuity despite what the contract end date may say in the notice due to system limitations.
The service commencement date is 1 July 2023.
Please note the deadline for ITT submissions is 10:00am on 27th February 2023.
This procurement has been advertised in accordance with the requirements of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended) (the "Regulations") to the extent that the Regulations relate to services within the scope of Schedule 3 thereto (Social and Other Specific Services). The Commissioner and AGCSU are, therefore, bound only by those parts of the Regulations applying to Schedule 3 services.
The Contracting Authority will be using an eTendering system for this procurement exercise. Further information and the ITT documentation can be found via the 'Live Opportunities' list on the etendering system at the following link: https://health-family-contract.search.secure.force.com/?searchtype=Projects. Additional information: It is anticipated that the service provision resultant of this procurement will have the following estimated baseline contract values (excluding directed enhanced services, QoF, PCN and other income streams) at 2022-23 prices of between PS340,000 and PS360,000 per annum.
