When making an informed decision about a patient referral, a GP may need to refer to local and national guidance. In many instances this guidance is available in several site locations, which can be time consuming to find. To aid this process, the Contracting Authority is seeking a solution which combines clinical templates and referral forms with local and national guidance and other useful information to support the implementation and adherence to pathways. This solution will provide education and support to the 22 Merton and 40 Wandsworth GP practices to reduce variation and increase the quality of referrals. The CCGs are offering a contract for 3 years, with the new integrated service intended to commence from 1st July 2019 - the CCG is keen to accelerate this if possible. Full details about this service are provided within a suite of procurement documents which in addition to competitive procurement tender documents, includes a Service Specification to ensure potential bidders are fully informed as to the scope and intentions for this service and the commercial arrangements intended to support the contract.
