The tender, titled "Integrated Urgent Care Service," falls under the health services industry category and is currently in the tender stage, with a closing date of 23 February 2017. The service aims to enhance patient outcomes and optimise clinical capacity, supporting local priorities through compliance with national guidance. The contract period is set to commence on 1 December 2017 and conclude on 30 November 2022, with delivery addressed in the South West of the United Kingdom. This procurement will follow an open procedure method. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in health services, particularly those specialising in urgent care, medical practice, and advisory services. Companies that can provide integrated systems and support the overarching goals of reducing Emergency Department visits and improving patient access to care are well-suited to compete. Additionally, businesses capable of enhancing the efficiency of NHS services through innovative solutions may find this opportunity advantageous for expanding their operations within the public health sector. ## Notice On behalf of the population of Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly, NHS Kernow is seeking to commission a functionally integrated urgent care access, treatment and clinical access service incorporating NHS 111 and Primary Care Out of Hours Services that is compliant with national guidance specified in the "Commissioning Standards Integrated Urgent Care" (https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/integrtd-urgnt-care-comms-standrds-oct15.pdf). It is also important that the new service supports the Cornwall system and deliver the local A & E Delivery Board priority that NHS 111 should increase the number of calls transferred for clinical advice, as this will decrease call transfers to ambulance services and reduce A & E attendances as stated in the attached national guidance. The service is intended to provide rapid access to patients requiring clinical advice and treatment when they cannot access their own GP practice. It will be a key building block in delivering NHS Kernow's ambition to improve patient outcomes, provide care closer to home, optimise use of limited system-wide clinical capacity and reduce unplanned demand for 999 calls, 999 conveyances and Emergency Department attendances. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/07aa3849-e01f-4a02-9da8-a5da8f317896 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Jan 2017 | | Submission deadline | 23 Feb 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2017 - 30 Nov 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS KERNOW CLINICAL COMMISSIONING GROUP | | Locality | ST AUSTELL | | Post town | Plymouth | | Postcode | PL25 5AS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | St Austell Central & Gover | | Westminster constituency | St Austell and Newquay | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services - 85120000 - Medical practice and related services - 85121100 - General-practitioner services - 85140000 - Miscellaneous health services - 85141200 - Services provided by nurses - 85141210 - Home medical treatment services - 85141220 - Advisory services provided by nurses ## Release History - 11 Jan 2017 at 15:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/07aa3849-e01f-4a02-9da8-a5da8f317896 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/07aa3849-e01f-4a02-9da8-a5da8f317896 11th January 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=NHSSW All information relating to the opportunity can be found on the above site ## Notice URLs - https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/integrtd-urgnt-care-comms-standrds-oct15.pdf - https://www.kernowccg.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
