Tender description

The NHS Health Check programme is a mandatory public health service for the local authority. The NHS Health Check is a systematic vascular risk assessment and management programme to help prevent various cardiovascular diseases (CVD) including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, dementia and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The eligible cohort includes people between 40 to 74 years of age who do not have any diagnosed CVD at the time of the check. The Check is offered once every 5 years to assess their risk and offer support and advice to help them reduce or manage that risk. Smoking remains the single largest preventable cause of premature death, disease, disability and health inequalities in the UK. The aim of the MED is for LBH to explore a range of options around delivery models to deliver both targeted and opportunistic NHS Health Checks including a systematic call and recall element and A Smoking Cessation Services for the residents of LBH. The contract term will be for a period of 3 years, with annual extension up to 2 years (1+1). LBH invites providers with experience in delivering these service to participate in a Market Engagement Day (MED) event on Wednesday 23.5.2018 at 1:30 pm. London Borough of Hillingdon. The Middlesex Suite. Civic Centre. High Street. Uxbridge. UB8 1UW. If you participate in this market engagement you will not be given any advantage over other potential providers who express an interest, when LBH commences the procurement for the service. LBH wishes to ensure that this market engagement does not compromise or prejudice fair and open competition between potential providers in any future procurement.
