## Summary

The NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit has recently awarded a contract titled "Provision of Orthodontics in Lincolnshire." This service falls under the healthcare industry, specifically classified as orthodontic services, and is focused on supporting orthodontic patients in Lincolnshire. The contract commenced on 1st January 2022 and runs until 31st December 2023, encompassing a total contract value of up to £30,740. The procurement process utilised an open procedure, attracting suitably qualified providers to express interest in delivering these services, with the established service provider, Bourne Dental Practice, continuing to manage existing patients for the duration of the contract.

This opportunity for orthodontic service provision creates significant potential for business growth, particularly for SMEs and VCSEs in the healthcare sector. Companies equipped to deliver orthodontic treatments and willing to establish operational premises within Lincolnshire are particularly well-suited to compete. The contract stipulates a patient intake of up to 45 active cases and 38 in supervised retention, allowing entrants to tap into an established patient base while aligning with NHS frameworks and payment structures as outlined in the National Tariff.
