Summary of the contracting process

NHS England is in the planning stage of procuring services for the "NHS Healthier You: Behavioural Support for Obesity Prescribing, Diabetes Prevention and Type 2 Path to Remission Programme."

The health-focused initiative targets behavioural interventions and support surrounding weight management, diabetes prevention, and chronic condition management, with a potential value of £350 million. Important upcoming activities for interested parties include a market engagement webinar on 10th September 2025, with a future notice date planned for 1st December 2025. The project will initiate with pilots in eight Integrated Care Systems (ICS) over three years, with further expansion considered based on evaluation outcomes. Despite the initiative being at the planning stage, engagement with the buyer, NHS England, located in Leeds, is encouraged.
