Summary of the contracting process

NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned an emergency and urgent care practitioner service for people aged one and over registered with GP practices in the South Hambleton and Ryedale Primary Care Network. The service provides patient triage and prioritisation, with practitioners giving advice or arranging assessment by telephone, electronic consultation or face-to-face appointment. A named duty doctor at each practice supports the practitioners. This is a clinical service delivered to a rural population in South Hambleton and Ryedale, intended to improve access to urgent and emergency care through locally based provision. The work combines assessment, clinical decision-making and coordination with local GP practices.

The contract has been awarded to South Hambleton and Ryedale Primary Care Network Limited under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using direct award process C. The award date was 18 September 2026. The contract runs from 2 October 2026 to 31 August 2029, with an option to extend by two years. Its estimated lifetime value is £1,493,084. The procurement was organised as one lot and used a limited procedure without a published competition. The selection assessment considered whether the existing provider was meeting its original contract and was likely to perform the proposed contract adequately. The broader assessment weighted quality at 30%, access and reducing health inequalities at 20%, value and integration at 15% each, and innovation and social value at 10% each.

The selected provider was assessed as capable of delivering safe, effective, patient-centred clinical care, supported by robust clinical governance, structured triage and ongoing risk monitoring. Credible providers for this requirement need to manage demand and provide timely access, with measurable patient outcomes and the ability to reduce pressure on emergency services. The assessment also highlights practical innovation, including multi-stage triage, digital tools and capacity responsive to demand. Strong integration with GP practices, acute and community services, shared clinical records and coordinated care pathways are important to service continuity and patient flow. For a rural population, local hubs and reduced travel times matter. The buyer also values efficient workforce deployment, local employment and development, inclusive employment practices, and reduced emissions through local delivery.
