The NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board has confirmed the award of a contract for Acute Services under the Healthcare Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement process was conducted through a Direct Award Process B, specific to health services, with the contract valued based on past activities.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for established healthcare providers to expand their operations in the health services industry, specifically in the acute care sector, which operates under the patient choice provision.
