Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for a Diagnostic Interpretation Service (Telehealth) under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The procurement procedure followed a direct award process (Process C), outside the scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This one-year contract runs from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025, serving regions including Blackburn with Darwen, Chorley and South Ribble, Greater Preston, Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre, and West Lancashire. The total contract value is £370,831 for some regions, with a cost-per-case model applied for others. This contract was awarded on 17th September 2024, and relevant contact details for representations were provided by NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board, located in Preston, UK.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in telehealth services, particularly those with expertise in diagnostic interpretation. The nature of the service, classified under CPV code 85100000 (Health services), makes it ideal for health service providers aiming to extend their services into the North West of England. Existing providers meeting the specified criteria, which include quality, value, integration, and service sustainability, would be especially suited. The direct award approach favours entities that are already successfully delivering similar services, such as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with a proven track record in telehealth solutions.
