The NHS Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board (ICB) has issued a confirmation of contract award for the Medical Retina Service, falling under the health services category. This award, dated 1st September 2025, is carried out under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) regulations, specifically not subject to the Procurement Act 2023. The service encompasses the diagnosis and ongoing assessment for conditions such as neovascular age-related macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusions, and diabetic retinopathy, serving patients across Leicester City, Leicestershire County, and Rutland. The procurement process used a limited method, ensuring the rapid assignment of this vital service to new providers while bypassing the usual call for competition. The contract is active from March and is set to continue until the end of March 2026.

This contract represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health services to engage with the NHS in delivering crucial care to local communities. The Medical Retina Service requires a team of specialised medical professionals, including Consultant Ophthalmologists and Specialist Optometrists, offering opportunities for entities equipped with the necessary clinical expertise.
