## Notice

Banes, Swindon and Wiltshire Clinical Commissioning Group are seeking to commission a specialist Community Based Skin Surgery service for patients registered in the B&NES locality Primary Care Networks. The service model is for high risk BCCs, and other lesions that are within the terms of CCG clinical access policies and which need to be treated by secondary care services. The aim of the service is to provide local capacity for patients with high risk BCCs and/or other non-2WW lesions requiring removal by surgery that would otherwise be referred on to the Royal United Hospital NHS FT (RUH) specialist in hospital. Thereby improving access times and ensuring that the right professional treats patients in the right place at the right time. The community service is intended to be provided by a combination of secondary care (service lead; contract holder, consultant level delivery of the surgical service, including responsibility for histology, LSMDT liaison, CQC registration, etc.) and primary care (GP practice, use of surgical facilities and as required administrative, nursing and clinical governance support) working together; alternative community-based models may be proposed for consideration (e.g. located at community hospitals). The initial contract term will be for 3 years from 1st July 2022, with an optional extension of any period(s) up to a maximum of a further 2 years, as defined and at the discretion of the commissioners. The financial envelope is PS488,006 per annum. This procurement is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners.
