This opportunity falls under the Health services industry category and aims to commission a provider to deliver various MSK services, including clinical triage, pain management, rheumatology, and more. The event will be held virtually on Tuesday 29th November 2022, providing valuable information to potential bidders before the official procurement process in 2023. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the healthcare sector to participate in providing integrated MSK services in the identified region. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in delivering community MSK services, physiotherapy, and related healthcare services would be especially well-suited to compete. Interested organisations must engage with the event and submit the required documentation via the Attain Bravo Solution E-Procurement Portal by Friday 25th November 2022 to be considered for potential future contracts in this field. ## Notice NHS Hertfordshire and West Essex Integrated Care Board (HWE ICB) intends to develop an Integrated MSK Service for the South & West place area. The proposal is to commission a suitably qualified and experienced provider to deliver an Integrated MSK Service which will work as a key partner within the South & West Hertfordshire system. The service model is continuing to be developed and at a high level is likely to include the following service elements (this list is not exhaustive): Single Point of Access for all non-trauma MSK conditions and community MSK service pathways for disease management and treatment, including MSK rehabilitation (physiotherapy), clinical triage for Tier 2 and 3 referrals, pain management, rheumatology and stable review service, Advice and Guidance via ERS, diagnostic request, imaging and access to reports and virtual MDT clinics for managing complex cases including onward referral to a secondary care provider of the patient's choice where applicable for conditions that cannot be managed in the community and a seamless interface with primary care and other organisation across the system. The Authority is seeking to provide further information to the market in relation to the service that is required prior to launching a procurement process during 2023. The market engagement event will take place on Tuesday 29th November from 11:00am - 1:00pm and will be held virtually as a webinar and broadcast via Microsoft Teams. The format of the event will be a presentation from the commissioners followed by a Q&A session. The information gathered will support commissioners to better understand the market and to inform the approach to the procurement process. All organisations wishing to attend the event must complete and return the booking form via Attain's eProcurement Portal (https://attain.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html) via Current Opportunities (ref sq_75 - Market Engagement Event for Integrated MSK Service for South and West Hertfordshire) by no later than Friday 25th November 2022.
