Primary prevention includes ensuring that risk stratification has been undertaken and all appropriate investigations, including DXA scan for those at medium risk, have been requested and completed and start drug and other treatments according to NICE and National Guidance and within local agreements for men. The British Orthopaedic Association has stated that "A major change is needed in fracture services to ensure that every patient presenting with a fragility fracture is assessed for osteoporosis and referred for treatment as appropriate. Secondary prevention should not only address osteoporosis but the risk of additional falls should be addressed, in terms of the patient's medical condition and that of their environment." West Essex CCG wishes to seek a suitably qualified provider to work in partnership to deliver these services to their patients. Interested providers are asked to register on the Attain Bravo portal to access details of this opportunity. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/50f40958-30ab-4650-b4c1-6bb6d74e4cf7 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Mar 2017 | | Submission deadline | 24 Mar 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 May 2017 - 31 Mar 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £138,055 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ATTAIN HEALTH MANAGEMENT SERVICES | | Locality | EPPING | | Post town | Chelmsford | | Postcode | CM16 6TN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH3 Essex | | ITL 3 | TLH35 West Essex | | Local authority | Epping Forest | | Electoral ward | Epping East | | Westminster constituency | Epping Forest | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 10 Mar 2017 at 13:18 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/50f40958-30ab-4650-b4c1-6bb6d74e4cf7 - 10 Mar 2017 at 13:10 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/50f40958-30ab-4650-b4c1-6bb6d74e4cf7 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/50f40958-30ab-4650-b4c1-6bb6d74e4cf7 10th March 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://attain.bravosolution.co.uk Attain Bravo E-Tendering portal ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
