## Notice

NHS Dorset Clinical Commissioning Group is inviting expressions of interest from suitably qualified providers for the provision of Spinal Surgery Service for Dorset. The Dorset spinal service is part of a continuum of care built upon a robust multidisciplinary approach to support people with spinal problems. Physiotherapy, rheumatology, the Dorset Musculoskeletal Service and back pain services work in a united way to support alternatives to surgery for the majority of people with spinal problems. Effective triage of patients leads to the identification of patients who would benefit from a spinal surgical opinion and potential surgical intervention. The Pan Dorset spinal surgery service is an integral part of the whole pathway for spinal services and is required to liaise with the interface services utilising Multi-disciplinary Team (MDT) meetings and effective communication to ensure best care for patients with refractory spinal problems. The service provides both elective and non-elective inpatient, day case and outpatient care for people requiring spinal surgery. A prospectus of the services can be downloaded from the procurement portal https://procontract.due-north.com/Register Expressions of interest must be received no later than 12 midday on Friday 6 January 2017.
