The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period, which begins the day after this notice is published. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by the 25th of March 2026. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR. Email address where written representations should be sent: llricb-llr.contracting@nhs.net Details of the award decision-makers: NHS LNR ICB cluster Committees Meeting in Common for Finance and Contracting 03 March 2026 Any declared conflicts or potential conflicts of interest of individuals making the decision and how these were managed: - None were declared. Relative importance and rationale for the relative importance of the key criteria, and the rationale for choosing the provider with reference to the key criteria: 1. Quality and innovation The Provider is achieving the contractual quality outcomes; quality and safeguarding compliance are assured via current contract management processes. The Provider is innovating in community outreach to reduce health inequalities. 2. Value The provider offers community-based elective services based on local pricing, which has been evaluated as offering good value in terms of costs, and overall benefits to service users. (Cataract services are the only consultant-led service paid at national tariff.) 3. Integration, collaboration and service sustainability The provider works closely with General Practice, PCNs and Federations to develop integrated services, at locations close to home. 4. Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice Patients are offered the choice of an appointment within LLR in a range of community settings (or given a choice of secondary care provider where this is indicated following triage). Offering a choice of appointments to patients in a community setting results in improved access to care - patients are able to receive the care in the right place at the right time, with shorter waiting times and closer to home. The provision supports reducing health inequalities and wider access to hospital services for the LLR population by reducing avoidable demand into secondary care, and the Provider is exceeding the national RTT performance requirement of 92%. 5. Social value As a Community Interest Company, the Provider reinvests back into the local healthcare community across LLR. This includes examples such as establishing an equipment rental fund and supporting transformation and inequalities work such as the development of health and wellbeing hubs across LLR. Care closer to home supports improved patient experience of care with reduced environmental impacts.",
