Summary of the contracting process

NHS England – Midlands (West), acting as the Commissioner, has been overseeing a procurement process for a Diabetic Eye Screening Programme (DESP) across Shropshire and Staffordshire. The contracting process is part of a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. Currently in the award stage, NHS England intends to award the contract to InHealth Intelligence, subject to a standstill period ending at midnight on 20th March 2026, with services commencing on 1st January 2027. The procurement follows an open procedure with key evaluation criteria including quality, value, integration, and social value. This service falls under the health services industry category and aims to mitigate sight-threatening conditions in individuals with diabetes, through timely screenings conducted at local venues associated with GP practices and HM Prison detained settings in the region.

The Diabetic Eye Screening Programme offers substantial growth opportunities for health service providers capable of delivering high-quality screening services. Businesses with expertise in health services, particularly those understanding the needs of diabetic patients, will find the contract appealing as it covers a wide geographical area with a diverse population, thus promising a substantial service demand of around 123,243 eligible individuals. The contract is valued at £31,000,000 and provides up to nine years of service execution, including the optional extension period. Providers who excel in integration, collaboration, and delivering sustainable services while effectively reducing health inequalities will be well-suited to meet the programme's objectives and foster continuous improvement in the delivery of these essential health services.
