## Summary

NHS North Central London ICB in London initiated a procurement process for the service of a Social Prescriber to support engagement in cardiac rehabilitation services. Categorised under community health services, this procurement process began under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, meaning the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 did not apply. Initially announced as an intention to award on 8 January 2025, the process was confirmed on 22 January 2025, with the contract starting from 1 April 2025 for a term of one year, valued at £52,772. However, a subsequent notice on 4 February 2025 stated the contract would no longer be renewed, and hence, the award was cancelled.

This tender presented a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those involved in community health and rehabilitation. While initially awarded to Age UK Islington, indications were that the existing provider met the criteria through quality and innovation, value for money, integration, collaboration, and social value, making the service suitable for well-established providers with a track record of achieving contractual key performance indicators and delivering social value. Although this specific opportunity has been cancelled, similar future contracts would benefit firms with expertise in delivering integrated health services and reducing health inequalities.
