## Notice

NHS East Surrey Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is re-commissioning its Wellbeing Prescribing Service. Social prescribing provides an infrastructure which enables GPs, nurses and other primary care professionals to refer people to a range of local, non-clinical services. Recognising that people's health is determined by a range of social, economic and environmental factors, social prescribing seeks to address people's needs in a holistic way. It also aims to support individuals to take greater control of their own health. This can help prevent people moving through the health and social care system being referred from one provider to another without really getting their needs addressed. NHS East Surrey CCG is seeking a provider to deliver a Wellbeing Prescribing Service which is able to work with clients in GP Practices and also older, high-cost clients with multiple, complex needs in their own homes, across East Surrey area. To achieve full service commencement from 1 April 2018, the CCG anticipates awarding a contract for 3 years to the appointed provider with the option to extend for up to a further 2 years at the CCG's discretion, i.e. up to 5 years. The affordability threshold for this contract is PS 492,000 per year for the provision of a wellbeing prescribing service to 4800 to 5000 individuals per year.
