## Summary

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract for the "Provision of Orthopaedic Outsourced Elective Surgery" under urgent circumstances due to a critical workforce shortage. The contract, focusing on the medical specialist services industry, will address a sudden need for hip, knee, foot, and ankle surgeries to reduce patient waiting times. This award, made without prior publication, is governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 rather than the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract, valued at £72,000, will commence on 11 January 2025 and last for six months, with all procedures to be performed at the provider's premises in the UK.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for suppliers in the healthcare sector, specifically those capable of delivering orthopaedic services efficiently and addressing immediate health risks. Businesses specialising in medical specialist services and equipped to handle urgent contract requirements would be well-suited to compete for similar tenders in the future. Modality LLP, awarded this contract, exemplifies the type of organisation that can leverage such opportunities to expand their service offerings and gain a foothold in the public healthcare market.
