Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board has completed the procurement process for the provision of ophthalmology services, including Anti VEGF, Cataract, Cataract YAG, Glaucoma, and Ocular Plastics Services. This was facilitated through a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023, where the contracts have been awarded to New Medical Systems Ltd, trading as Newmedica. The services are scheduled from 1st September 2025 to 31st August 2028, with a potential extension until 31st August 2030. There was no prior call for competition as the procurement method was limited, utilising the Direct Award Process B. The procurement falls outside the typical directive scope, and contract award was confirmed on 3rd March 2026. The healthcare industry-specific focus is within the Warwickshire region under the health services category.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for firms specialising in ophthalmology services. The procurement, awarded to an established service provider, involves payment aligned with NHS National Tariff 2025/26, offering firms stability and consistent revenue streams. Small and medium enterprises with expertise in healthcare services, particularly those with capabilities in cataract and retinal procedures, are well-suited to compete for complementary roles or subsequent tender opportunities with NHS Coventry and Warwickshire. Given the contract's duration and extension options, businesses in the healthcare sector can build sustained partnerships and service enhancements over time, leveraging expertise in ocular services and aligning with NHS national guidance.
