This opportunity falls under the health services category and is located in the East of England. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with an engagement event scheduled for 27th September 2022. This tender for Non-Emergency Patient Transport Services presents an opportunity for businesses operating in the health services sector.

Businesses interested in participating should register on the In-tend portal and express interest in the current tenders section. ## Notice The Non-Emergency Patient Transport Services (NEPTS) are due to be recommissioned by the NHS Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care Board (SNEE ICB) at a time of considerable change in the way in which health and social care services are being commissioned and delivered. The NEPTS services are also expected to develop and deliver differently in order to adapt to the changing health and social care landscape and to deliver the national requirements which have been released. The SNEE ICB want to better understand the changing landscape from all perspectives before looking to recommission the NEPTS and are therefore holding an engagement event with all parties interested in the service.
