## Summary

NHS England is initiating a procurement process for the NHS National Framework aimed at the provision of Medical Retinal Vascular Anti Veg-F and Intravitreal Corticosteroid medicines. This process, currently in the planning stage, invites suppliers to engage in a virtual preliminary market meeting to discuss timelines, product details, and tender structure. The procurement, based in London, UK, is targeting the pharmaceutical industry for goods provision.
