Oxfordshire CCG - Banbury Health Centre GP Service

Tender description

Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group is seeking expressions of interest in a potential tender for a GP Practice at Banbury Health Centre in Banbury. The successful provider would need to be able to provide the full range of primary medical services at the practice from 1st July 2018. Given the small practice registered list and the current workforce challenges in Banbury, the provider will be expected to actively collaborate with local Primary Care Providers and demonstrate formal commitments to form a local Alliance. This is in line with the CCG's Primary Care Framework, recognising that practices with registered lists smaller than 8000 remain at risk of poor resilience. Banbury Health Centre GP services occupy the first floor of the building based at 58, Bridge Street in Banbury OX16 5QD. We have heard from patients and the public the importance of the location of these GP services and expect to see the ongoing delivery of services from this site within any Alliance agreement. The practice serves 5970 patients and will have an associated annual budget of £508,104 (which excludes the pass through costs of the estate). The contract would likely be offered for a period of five years. Our vision for the GP patients in Banbury is to provide a locally led service which works collaboratively across the Banbury neighbourhood and is GP led and supported by nurses and other clinical professionals as appropriate. In particular, the successful provider will: • Provide all Essential Services and all Additional Services • Provide high quality primary care services supported by a good CQC rating which will be accessible, convenient and responsive • Deliver all services throughout core hours which will cover 8am until 6.30pm Monday to Friday • Design services around the needs of patients and carers, ensuring they are offered choice and involvement in their treatment • Have processes in place to evaluate and continually improve on patient satisfaction • Have processes in place to engage effectively with the local communities • Participate in Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) • Be eligible for and expected to provide all Enhanced Services, remunerated in line with the relevant Directions as specified by the commissioner on an annual basis. • Work on promotion of healthy living with the aim of tackling the underlying causes of ill health. Expressions of interest should be sent to mstanbrook@nhs.net by 9th February 2018.
