## Summary

This public procurement process conducted by the NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board pertains to the award of the "Optometry Local Enhanced Services 2024/25" contract to Premier Eyecare. The contract focuses on delivering locally enhanced optician services integrated with existing Ophthalmic contracts for the Rotherham region, classified under the "Optician services" industry category. The award was made through a limited procurement method under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The contract was awarded with a start date of 1st April 2024 and will run until 31st March 2025. The contract decision was finalised on 1st April 2024, and there were no conflicts of interest reported during the decision-making process.

This tender creates significant opportunities for optometry businesses that hold General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contracts, as the enhanced services are designed to work in conjunction with these existing services. Businesses well-suited for this contract are those already providing general ophthalmic services and looking to expand their portfolio by integrating additional local care services. Premier Eyecare, as the awarded supplier, will operate on an activity-based payment model in line with local pricing structures, offering potential growth through increased service delivery under the NHS Payment Scheme.

## Notice

The provider is commissioner to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population integrated with their additional Ophthalmic contracts.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The provider is commissioned to deliver locally enhanced services for the Rotherham population. This contract Award has been made following direct award process B under the Provider Selection Regime.

These contracts are awarded to an existing group of providers. Although we would not restrict the number of providers who deliver these LCS services provided they meet the contract and specification criteria, the primary reason that these services can only be delivered by this group of providers (Optometrists) is because they are required to hold a General Ophthalmic Services (GOS) contract and deliver the LCS alongside these services; the LCS is designed to enhance the (GOS) contract and not stand alone, therefore, interdependency between the two services is paramount. For this reason not every Optometrist delivers every LCS.

The provider is paid on an activity basis based on local prices. The contract award is from 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2025. This is an existing service from an existing provider. Additional information: The contract value is unknown. The provider is paid in line with the relevant unit prices for the activity delivered in accordance with the nationally mandated NHS Payment Scheme

### Procurement Information

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation of contract award notice. This contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award.
