Tender description

Interim contracts for clinical services to support immediate efforts to reduce NHS waiting lists in the London Region. The Contracting Authorities intend to award contracts to providers for a range of services including: 1) NHS inpatient and outpatient services (including full supporting pathology and imaging) and urgent elective care and cancer treatment in line with nationally set criteria; 2) NHS inpatient non-elective care (either direct admission or transfer from an NHS organisation). The scope of the procurement is also intended to permit NHS England to commission specialised services. The purpose of the awards is to assist efforts to reduce NHS waiting list pressures that have increased as a result of Covid-19. It is the intention for each Contracting Authority named in this notice to enter into a separate contract with a successful provider, for the services required by that authority.
