## Summary

NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board commissioned routine elective secondary care, focused on ophthalmology and glaucoma. The service covers diagnostic procedures within agreed care pathways and direct access to diagnostics where the commissioner has agreed this. Care can span referral and triage, clinical assessment, diagnostics and consultation; outpatient, ambulatory or inpatient treatment; discharge planning; and specialist follow-up and onward referrals for up to 14 days after discharge. The work is for patients in the Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire area. The procurement is for ophthalmology services (CPV 85121281), rather than equipment or construction.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to SpaMedica Limited trading as SpaMedica, with an active contract signed on 1 April 2026. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027, with no extension provision. It is activity-based and has no guaranteed value; the recorded contract value is £0.01. The commissioner used Direct Award Process B under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, in line with Right to Choose requirements, without prior publication of a competition. The stated evaluation gave patient choice 100% weighting and price 0%. One lot covered all the described services. The lot is marked cancelled in the tender data, although the award and contract are recorded as active.

For a supplier assessing this buyer’s future ophthalmology requirement, credibility depends on delivering routine elective secondary care across a joined-up patient pathway, rather than diagnostics or treatment alone. Relevant capability includes ophthalmology and glaucoma services, agreed diagnostic pathways and, where authorised, direct-access diagnostics. Providers need to be able to manage referral, triage, clinical assessment, consultation and pre-treatment preparation, as well as outpatient, ambulatory or inpatient treatment. Discharge planning and safe follow-up, including specialist support and coordination with GPs or district nurses, are also part of the service. The contract is activity-based, so suppliers need to accommodate variable patient activity rather than rely on a guaranteed volume or value. The selection placed all stated weight on patient choice, making accessible patient choice central to a credible offer.

## Notice
