It's role forms part of a clinical strategy to provide care to particularly older adults, close to their own community, with the delivery of care provided by their own GPs. Continuity of care is particularly important for this patient group. For this reason it is key that medical cover is provided by local practices, with the GPs fulfilling their role as Expert Medical Generalists as per the 2018 GMS contract, leading the wider multidisciplinary team. These practices are also small rural practices, which are amongst our most fragile providers. The income from the hospital contract is important to keep these as sustainable independent practices. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT491523 | | Notice type | OJEU - F20 - Modification Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large, SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 27 Jun 2022 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £568,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS HIGHLAND | | Locality | INVERNESS | | Post town | Inverness | | Postcode | IV2 3BW | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Highland | | Electoral ward | Inverness South | | Westminster constituency | Inverness, Skye and West Ross-shire | | Delivery location | TLM6 Highlands and Islands | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 3 | | Supplier names | BRORA AND HELMSDALE MEDICAL PRACTICE; DORNOCH MEDICAL PRACTICE; GOLSPIE MEDICAL PRACTICE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85120000 - Medical practice and related services - 85121000 - Medical practice services ## Release History - 30 Oct 2023 at 00:00 - AwardUpdate - OJEU - F20 - Modification Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT491523 - 18 Oct 2022 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT461954 - 31 Aug 2022 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F15 - Voluntary Ex Ante Transparency Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG457752 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG457752 Medical Support Services to Lawson Memorial Hospital - NHS Highland requires a Medical Support Service to be provided to Lawson Memorial Community Hospital based at Golspie in the North Highlands. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT461954 Medical Support Services to Lawson Memorial Hospital - NHS Highland requires a Medical Support Service to be provided to Lawson Memorial Community Hospital based at Golspie in the North Highlands. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT491523 HH004-22 Medical Support Services to Lawson Memorial Hospital ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.nhshighland.scot.nhs.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000703288 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
