Wandsworth End of Life Care Coordination Service

Tender description

Battersea Healthcare CIC (BHCIC) has been appointed by Wandsworth CCG as the Multiple Specialty Community Provider (MCP) to act as lead provider for a range of local health services. Whilst Battersea Healthcare CIC is under no lawful obligation to comply with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, it is nevertheless committed to invite expressions of interest through a transparent process, hence this Contracts Finder Notice. A new service has been piloted for the last 2 years which is about to be awarded by the BHCIC as a substantive contract following the successful outcomes being achieved by the pilot service. The new contract is likely to be for 4 years, with the potential to be extended for a further 3 years after that. Whilst the pilot service has been successfully delivered by a local voluntary sector provider offering very good value for money within a challenged financial budget, the BHCIC now wishes to award a substantive contract to deliver the service which will provide a "stable" contact point for patients and Health Care Professionals (HCPs) within Wandsworth, whilst contributing to, adapting to and incorporating changes to processes and pathways as the system changes. The oversight to be provided through this service will maximise the use of commissioned services across the system to support quality patient care and improve outcomes for individuals and the system as a whole. Note: NHS Shared Business Services is providing support to the Battersea Healthcare CIC as it seeks to award the contract.
