This procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a crucial engagement deadline set for 10:00 am on 16th August 2019. Potential providers are encouraged to participate in the market assessment questionnaire by this date, after which a final service specification will be made available in early September 2019 for the subsequent procurement process. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in healthcare and dental services, particularly those offering domiciliary care or specialised dental provisions. Companies that focus on catering to individuals with physical, intellectual, or sensory impairments, or those experiencing mental health challenges, will be highly suitable for competition. Engaging in this tender will allow organisations to expand their service offerings in the NHS sector while directly contributing to improving oral health outcomes for vulnerable populations in the East Midlands. ## Notice NHS Arden & Greater East Midlands CSU on behalf of NHS England and NHS Improvement - Midlands would like to inform you of a future opportunity to provide Domiciliary Dental Services across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire (excluding Bassetlaw). The Commissioner is carrying out a market assessment exercise to engage with potential providers to gather information from the market. Potential providers are asked to complete the market assessment questionnaire by 10:00am on Friday 16th August 2019. The Commissioner has also attached a draft Service Specification which contains information on the service. Potential bidders should note that the Service Specification is a draft version and that a final Service Specification will be issued when the ITT is published, early September 2019. Domiciliary dental services are concerned with providing and enabling the improvement of oral health of individuals and groups in society who have a physical, sensory, intellectual, mental, or medical factor that limits their ability to access oral health care services appropriate to their needs. The service will provide a domiciliary dental service to residents of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. This includes to care homes and patients confined to their own homes, including a full clinical examination, an oral health risk assessment and appropriate treatment, including preventive care, to patients with long term and/or progressive medical conditions; mental illness or dementia, causing disorientation and confusion in unfamiliar environments; or increasing frailty who are unable to travel to a dental surgery and who could not otherwise access dental care. Additional information: If your organisation is interested in providing these services as set out above, please complete the market assessment questionnaire.
