## Notice

This procurement is for the provision of GP Out of Hours (GP OOH) Integrated Urgent Care Services for the NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Southport & Formby, South Sefton, St Helens and Warrington. The CCGs with NHS Liverpool CCG acting as the co-ordinating or lead commissioner, have a vision for their 'out of hours' Urgent Primary Care Medical Services as part of an integrated single model of urgent care services across the whole health economy, providing a high-quality clinical service with a clear patient centred focus. The CCGs have come together to procure a single service that will work closely alongside and integrate service delivery with the North West NHS 111 service, in line with the national expectations for an integrated 'consult & complete' delivery model. The main aim of the service is to provide evidence based urgent primary care which optimises health and wellbeing and reduces the impact of ill health during the out of hours period, avoiding where possible the need for acute care. The anticipated, maximum total contract value (including any potential extensions) is PS82,845,310 (ex VAT). The Contract will have an initial term of 5 years (plus an option of one extension for a further 2 years) from the commencement date of 1st October 2020.
