Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Care Board has recently updated its procurement process regarding the provision of Secondary Care Ophthalmology Services for adults in the Cheshire and Merseyside area. This procurement, classified under Health and Social Work Services, involves services such as cataract surgery and glaucoma treatment for patients within the designated regions. The procurement stage is at the award stage as of December 2025, following a Provider Selection Regime, with the contract awarded without a prior call for competition. The contract, initially commenced on 1st April 2023, has been modified to extend until 31st March 2026, with a monetary value of £3,600,220 annually following the amendment.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in ophthalmology. With the direct award process used for this procurement, providers already familiar with NHS frameworks and operational in the Cheshire and Merseyside regions may find this an advantageous opportunity. Large-scale suppliers, like ISIGHT Clinic LTD, who understand the demand and specifics of secondary care ophthalmic services, are particularly well-positioned to compete, as evidenced by their current involvement. Expanding in this sector allows businesses to align with public healthcare initiatives, potentially leading to further contracting opportunities as regional needs for healthcare services grow.
