Summary of the contracting process

NHS Surrey and Sussex Integrated Care Board commissioned echocardiography services for North West Surrey. The service provides cardiac ultrasound diagnostics for patients with suspected heart failure and other heart conditions, supporting diagnosis, treatment and ongoing management. It is a healthcare service, classified under cardiology services (CPV 85121231). Delivery is centred on the local North West Surrey pathway, with provision from Madeira Medical Practice at West Byfleet Health Centre. The model uses a GP with Extended Role (GPwER) and is integrated with referring general practices, community providers, primary care networks, acute NHS trusts and the Integrated Care Board. The service also includes digital triage, rapid reporting to referrers and interoperability with primary care systems such as EMIS and TPP.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Madeira Medical Practice. The award date was 12 May 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract value is £130,896 including the stated two-year term, with the procurement description also giving an annual value of £65,448. The contract period runs from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2026. NHS Surrey and Sussex Integrated Care Board used Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process C, a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. The decision relied entirely on the existing provider’s quality and ability to satisfy the proposed contract; quality carried 100% of the evaluation and cost 0%. One bid was recorded. The award is active.

This procurement indicates demand for a locally embedded echocardiography provider able to deliver timely, accurate diagnostics within an NHS cardiac pathway. A credible competitor would need GPwER or equivalent clinical capability, robust clinical governance, regular audits and evidence of meeting national and local performance standards. Experience of digital triage, rapid diagnostic reporting and interoperability with primary care systems would be important, alongside effective relationships with GP practices, primary care networks, community providers, acute trusts and an integrated care board. The selected model also favours providers that can improve access closer to patients’ homes, reduce unnecessary secondary-care referrals and support underserved communities. Relevant strengths include efficient use of primary-care infrastructure, clinician training, local employment and lower-travel, digitally enabled delivery.
