                "description": "The community spirometry service provides a referral pathway to allow practices/PCNs to refer patients to the community-based spirometry service for diagnostic purposes if practices are unable to deliver spirometry testing. The service will triage all referrals from primary care ensuring the appropriate pre referral tests have been undertaken. The service will offer the provision of a timely diagnostic quality assured spirometric assessment of patients with respiratory symptoms in line with current national recommendations. Once the spirometry test is completed the service will interpret the findings from the test and share a report back to the referring clinician to enable future management of the condition. Staff undertaking the test and interpreting the results will have appropriate ARTP training. The provider will ensure the approach is personalised and will ensure they follow the MECC agenda, therefore offering smoking cessation to patients who remain smoking. The contract will be awarded for two years, with a total contract value of PS322,700. NHS Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care Board are awarding the contract named within this notice under the Direct Award C process which is outlined within the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The provider named in this notice is an existing provider and has been reviewed through a Key Criteria assessment to ensure the awarding body is satisfied with current performance and reasonably expects the provider to be able to satisfy the contract which is the subject of this notice. The contract which is the subject of this notice has not changed considerably when compared with the existing / previous contract delivered by the named provider.

To this end, after the award of contract, there is a possibility that the contract may be varied as allowable in accordance with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.",
