The contractual modification allows Bursted Wood Surgery to become a branch of Lyndhurst Medical Centre, effective from 1 April 2026. It addresses the expiry of the Bursted Wood Surgery's APMS contract by expanding service provision and practice boundaries under the umbrella of Lyndhurst Medical Centre, while ensuring continuity of care for existing patient lists. The procurement stage is complete, and the contract, signed on 17 December 2025, has a total value of £2,938,432.20. The award procedure was expedited without prior publication due to its urgent nature, underlining the importance of maintaining uninterrupted healthcare services.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in healthcare services, particularly those experienced in providing primary medical care under Personal Medical Services contracts. Organisations with strategic interests in expanding service delivery or infrastructure in the South East London area, particularly in general practice, might find this development favourable. The modification enhances long-term contract security and amalgamates patient lists, which could result in economies of scale and improved operational efficiency for large organisations like NHS boards or GP federations. Business growth can be cultivated through increased resilience, integration opportunities, and expanded service offerings, all facilitated by the leadership of a high-performing contract holder such as Clocktower Healthcare Limited, enhancing staff recruitment, retention, and the overall patient experience.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Services provided by the practice remain the same and the contractors will continue to deliver primary care core/essential services, premium services, and enhanced services. There is no change to service delivery. The Bursted Wood Surgery site will become a branch site of Lyndhurst Medical Centre and patients will be able to attend either the Bursted Wood branch or the main Lyndhurst Medical Centre site. 01-04-2026. This is the effective date of the Lyndhurst Medical Centre PMS contract variation to include the Bursted Wood Surgery as a branch site and assign the patient list. This is also the effective date of the expansion of the Lyndhurst Medical Centre practice boundary to include the Bursted Wood catchment area. The time-limited Bursted Wood Surgery (G83046) APMS contract is due to expire on 31 March 2026 and the contractual modification is to vary the Lyndhurst Medical Centre (G83049) PMS contract to include Bursted Wood as a branch site and assign the patient list from 1 April 2026. When the contractual change takes effect, Bursted Wood Surgery and Lyndhurst Medical Centre will operate as one single practice. Whilst the contractual change can't formally be termed as a merger because APMS and PMS contracts cannot be merged, the outcome of the contractual change and the steps required to achieve that outcome are akin to a merger. The Bursted Wood Surgery APMS contract is held by Bexley Health Neighbourhood Care (BHNC), the local GP federation, but the contract is entirely sub-contracted to Clocktower Healthcare Limited, where two of the company's directors are already signatories on the Lyndhurst Medical Centre PMS contract. Ahead of the contractual change, patients will be offered a choice to remain with the merged practice or re-register with another local practice. Those who choose to remain will be assigned to the Lyndhurst Medical Centre patient list under the G83049 ODS code. The current Bursted Wood Surgery time-limited APMS contract will then expire on 31 March 2026. The Lyndhurst Medical Centre contract value will increase as it is driven by registered list size, and as a result of the contractual change, there will be a significant increase of patients. As of 14 November 2025, the Lyndhurst Medical Centre contract has been varied with effect from 1 April 2026 to include the Bursted Wood premises as a branch site and assign the patient list. The contactual change also includes the expansion of the Lyndhurst Medical Centre practice boundary to include the Bursted Wood catchment area. Additional information: PMS contract without an end date, therefore no lifetime value. The estimated 2025-26 annual contract value as follows: Core Contract (incl GSUM, London Allowance, QOF, Premium Services and OOH deduction): PS2,689,417.06 PCN DES Network Participation Payment: PS32,091.79 Enhanced Services (achievement based): PS43,766.35 Total: PS2,765,275.20 Rent and Rates Reimbursement: PS173,157.00 Final total including Core Contract and Rates and Rents Reimbursement: PS2,938,432.20 This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) contract modification notice under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. This contract has now been formally modified. The Bexley Primary Care Delivery Group endorsed the recommended contractual change in its part 2 (private) meeting on 6 November 2024. No conflict of interest was identified in respect of the Primary Care Delivery Group meeting as the Clocktower Healthcare Limited directors were not present at the Primary Care Delivery Group part 2 meeting on 6 November 2024. The recommended contractual change was then endorsed and final approval was given by the Bexley Wellbeing Partnership on 22 May 2025. While the Clocktower Healthcare Limited directors, who were affected by the contractual change, remained present during the Bexley Wellbeing Partnership meeting, their conflict of interest was acknowledged. The rationale behind the contractual change is to improve patient experience and expand the service offer through better access to a broader range of clinical professionals, offering greater appointment choice and availability across both sites, and improving continuity of care. For the practice, bringing together the contracts allows for greater long-term contract security, increased resilience, economies of scale, improved efficiencies, better integration, and greater development and expansion opportunities that a larger organisation offers; all of which contribute to improved staff recruitment and retention. In addition, the contractual change instills confidence in the contract holders to be able to commit to long-term financial investment in the practice. The contractual change enables a recurrent saving on the PS5 per weighted patient premium for the time-limited nature of the APMS contract and removes the time and resource-intensive need to continually reprocure an APMS contract. The contractual change secures a high-performing contract holder to operate the Bursted Wood Surgery contract in the long-term, therefore securing service provision for patients. The price increase is based on the 2025-26 annual value of both contracts. As the merged practice will operate under a PMS contract without an end date, it is not possible to confirm the lifetime contract value. The contract price increase is a result of merging the registered list of the practices whilst retaining the Bursted Wood Surgery premises as a branch site of Lyndhurst Medical Centre. Lyndhurst Medical Centre estimated 25-26 contract value: PS1,861,103.28 plus premises costs PS102,208.43 Bursted Wood Surgery estimated 25-26 contract value: PS904,171.92 plus premises costs PS70,948.57 Modified/merged Lyndhurst Medical Centre estimated 25-26 contract value: PS2,765,275.20 plus premises costs PS173,157.00 The Lyndhurst Medical Centre contract is a PMS contract without an end date. The time-limited Bursted Wood Surgery APMS contract ends on 31 March 2026, which is the reason for the modification of the Lyndhurst Medical Centre PMS contract to include the Bursted Wood as a branch site and assign the patient list from 1 April 2026. This is a PMS contract without an end date. Award decision makers: South East London Integrated Care Board There were no conflict of interest identified in the decision making process.
