## Summary

NHS SCW CSU has concluded the procurement process for the "Provision of Annual Clinical Care Reviews for individuals in receipt of NHS Continuing Healthcare funding." The project, valued at £95,000, focuses on the provision of services within the healthcare sector, specifically targeting the population of East and West Kent in the United Kingdom. The procurement method was selective, carried out via a dynamic purchasing system (DPS). The tendering phase ended on 14th November 2024, with Woodrow Mercer Healthcare Limited awarded the contract, effective from 25th November 2024 to 24th April 2025.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services and personnel supply, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Engaging in this contract allows businesses to demonstrate their capability in managing extensive healthcare assessments and addressing backlogs within NHS frameworks. Companies with a robust workforce, experience in the NHS procedures, and efficient workflow management will find this tender particularly suitable to expand their presence and influence in the healthcare sector.

## Notice

SCW are commissioned to manage the end-end process for NHS Continuing Health (CHC) on behalf of Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board (ICB) for the population of East and West Kent, that are registered with a GP within the ICB's geographical footprint. As part of the NHS National Framework for NHS Continuing Healthcare and Funded Nursing Care (National Framework). National framework for NHS continuing healthcare and NHS-funded nursing care - GOV.UK SCW took over the service in 2019 and inherited backlog in certain workflows. A focused piece of work was completed in late 2022/23 to undertake Clinical Annual Care Reviews which is a requirement under the NHS National Framework for NHS Continuing Healthcare and Funded Nursing Care (FNC) (July 2022), to provide assurance that individuals in receipt of CHC funding have the correct package of care in place to meet their assessed needs. This is a statutory obligation of the ICB under the Standing Rules/Regulations (2012). As a result of a large number of reviews completed in a condensed period of time, the business as usual (BAU) team has not able to complete the reviews in a timely manner and therefore a further backlog has developed. The route to market will be by further competition via the SCW CSU Consultancy Services DPS 2.0
