Demand Projections MSK, Eyecare and Cardiology

Tender description

Procurement of forward looking projections of demand to support the pathway improvement programme. This would include: analysis of the drivers of demand the production of a tool that can be used by regions and systems to estimate their forward looking demand. Currently forward looking modelling for eyecare, MSK and cardiology services is extremely limited. As Integrated Care Systems will take on much more responsibility for the commissioning of services from NHSE there is a need to give them the tools to make forward looking investment decisions. At a national level, the lack of information about expected changes to demand at a specialty and sub-specialty level makes it difficult to target scarce resources effectively as part of the recovery. The objective is to create a set of tools that can be used nationally and locally.
