## Summary

The Cheshire & Merseyside Integrated Care Board (ICB) has confirmed the award of a contract under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 to Eunistar Health Consultant UK Ltd for the provision of Continuing Health Services. This contract covers services in Cheshire and Merseyside, including continuing healthcare, funded nursing care, complex care packages, and specialist care. The award process, which commenced on 12 March 2024, was completed with the contract commencing on 1 April 2024 and set to conclude on 31 March 2025. Under a limited procurement method without prior publication, this award was sanctioned despite standing declarations of interest from two committee members, highlighting compliance with conflict of interest policies. The services fall under the health services category, with no upfront contract value stipulated, and are crucial for the immediate clinical needs of patients in regions UKD6 and UKD7.

This procurement offers ample opportunities for businesses specialising in health services to increase their market presence and build relationships within the public health sector, particularly those proficient in delivering comprehensive care solutions. Entities capable of providing flexible, patient-centred care models and adept in managing complex or palliative care packages would be well-suited to engage with such opportunities. The procurement method and scope indicate a niche in the healthcare sector not immediately influenced by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, thus providing a strategic edge for businesses that can align with the Provider Selection Regime's requirements. Cultivating capabilities in these service areas could lead to further public contract opportunities and potential expansion into broader local and regional healthcare markets.

## Notice

This includes delivery of commissioned care, per individual patient, in line with service specifications that cover: Continuing healthcare Funded nursing care Complex care packages including palliative care Children's and young people's continuing care Specialist mental health care (Section 117) Specialist learning disabilities
