NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract under the Provider Selection Regime for an Integrated Cataract Pathway to Golding & Maud Eyecare Ltd. This procurement falls under Health Care Services, specifically Optician Services (CPV: 85160000), and spans regions in Sussex (UKJ2). The contract, which started on 1st July 2024 and ends on 30th June 2029, involves a comprehensive pathway including pre-referral assessments, pre-operative appointments, surgical procedures, and post-operative follow-ups. The procurement method was limited, executed via a direct award process without prior publication of a call for competition, under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses within the health and optician services industry, particularly those specialising in comprehensive eye care and surgical procedures.
