Notice Title

Development and Commissioning of Community Diagnostic Centres

Notice Description

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership ()NWSSP), hosted by Velindre NHS Trust are acting on behalf of three Health Boards; Aneurin Bevan University Local Health Board (ABUHB), Cardiff and Vale University Local Health Board (C&VUHB) and Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Local Health Board (CTMUHB) to establish a contract for the development and commissioning of Community Diagnostics Centres (CDC). The commissioning of the Community Diagnostic Centres will expedite a transformational design of planned care Health Services across the South Wales enabling rapid access for patients. The centres must include Radiology but could also include endoscopy, phlebotomy, ophthalmology and other diagnostics for the early diagnoses and the uncoupling of planned and unplanned care. These centres are expected to deliver diagnostics and some outpatients. The full scope of the scheme is unprecedented here in Wales and will require a successful bidder to describe all potential elements of build, equipment, commissioning and delivery of a full clinical service, including staffing for both clinical and non-clinical elements. There is a recognition that this also presents an opportunity to incorporate an approach which fosters community health and wellbeing as well as health and digital literacy.

Lot Information

Development and Commissioning of Community Diagnostic Centres

Diagnostic services across South-East Wales are under significant pressure, leading to extended waiting times for patients and impacting on a wide range of clinical pathways and services. In order to provide a sustainable solution to the pressures faced and to deliver further efficiencies through pathway changes, the three Health Boards in the region (Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (AB UHB), Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (CAV UHB) and Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTM UHB)) wish to commission three Community Diagnostic Hubs. The current service model is unable to meet demand or provide the capacity required to deliver the pathways described above, despite the delivery of non-recurrent activities to reduce waiting lists and as such, this Procurement seeks additional capacity in the form of three Community Diagnostic Hubs (CDHs) initially, with the possibility of nine such CDHs in the long-term. The 3 Health Boards in SE Wales are therefore looking to a ISP to act as a design partner to implement such CDHs, initial one such CDH and with at least two further CDHs in the medium to long term. The overall requirement would be expected to provide economies of scale linked to staff resources, training and cross cover; logistics associated with consumables, equipment, maintenance, corporate and management overheads.

Options: The opportunity to expand the CDC in the future would also be desirable, including the possibility of expanding to incorporate additional services for example, endoscopy and other healthcare pathways.

Renewal: There will be a three year extension option available either in annual tranches or as a three year option. Therefore, the maximum contract duration will be ten years.

Development and Commissioning of Community Diagnostic Centre for C&V UHB

Lot 2 will allow for Cardiff and Vale UHB to produce the pathways utilised by the CDH for Wales. It is the intention to award separately and in a shorter timescale to ensure that improvement pathways can be live within 2023/24 financial year. This lot requirement will be explored in the dialogue phases.

Options: The opportunity to expand the CDCs in the future would also be desirable, including the possibility of expanding to incorporate additional services for example endoscopy and other healthcare services.

Renewal: There will be a three year extension option available in annual tranches or utilised as a three year extension. Therefore, the maximum contract duration will be ten years.
