## Summary

The NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit is in the planning stage of a procurement process for a "Strategic Review of Anticoagulation Services in Buckinghamshire." This initiative targets health and social work services, specifically centred in Buckinghamshire, England. Key dates include an engagement end date set for 1 March 2019, with the existing warfarin monitoring service contract due to conclude on 31 March 2020. Stakeholders are invited to participate in a meeting to discuss future service provisions, aiming to improve the effectiveness and equity of anticoagulation services across the region.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the health sector, particularly those with expertise in anticoagulation services, warfarin monitoring, and Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs). Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) may find this procurement particularly suitable, allowing them to engage in shaping the future model of service delivery while potentially increasing their market share within the NHS framework.

## Notice

Buckinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) would like to invite you to a stakeholder meeting to discuss the future provision of anticoagulant services across Buckinghamshire. The existing warfarin monitoring service contract provided under an AQP arrangement ends on the 31st March 2020. This gives the CCG an opportunity to review the current anticoagulation monitoring arrangements that will include the use of warfarin, Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) and dalteparin. The aim is to re-commission an anticoagulation service that is equitable across Buckinghamshire whilst providing assurance that patient outcomes and safety are maximised. This initial stakeholder meeting is to gain your views and thoughts on what this new service should look like. Why is it important to attend? This event will enable stakeholders to: * Discuss and review existing services for warfarin monitoring; DOAC initiation and the provision of low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) dalteparin * Discuss good practice and service gaps in existing services * Scope options for a new integrated anticoagulation service to be delivered from April 2020 * Input into the design of the future commissioning model If you would like to attend, please contact Amelia Lloyd-Hunt at amelia.lloyd-hunt@nhs.net to register for a place.
