The purpose of the market testing exercise is to gather insight and feedback from interested providers to help inform healthy lifestyle services in Warwickshire. The market testing will inform the understanding of the potential of the local market to provide the required support offer and to explore innovative ways of delivering the support services to improve the physical health of Warwickshire residents.

Additionally, this provides the opportunity for organisations that may only be able to provide aspects of the service to demonstrate their capabilities or interest in delivering parts of the service. Providers can choose to respond with a focus on areas they are interested in delivering. Key areas we are exploring as part of this market engagement are as follows: How can services be best commissioned to improve the service user's journey and experience in accessing lifestyle services easily? How can services be delivered to enable a collaborative response to a service user's lifestyle needs? This includes service users with multiple risky healthy behaviours. How can services be delivered to support statutory NHS Health Check provision, to include data integration and follow-up with primary care? How can services adopt a universal proportionalism and/or targeted approach to manage the budget and reduce health inequalities? ### Planning Information We welcome interested providers to complete the Questionnaire that has been published via our e-procurement portal (CSW-jets).
