Description

NHS Arden & Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit (NHS AGEM CSU) on behalf of NHS Lincolnshire ICB invited suitably qualified providers to deliver their Homecare Services.

NHS Lincolnshire ICB serve a registered population of approximately 810,000 people. The demographic changes within the UK suggest that as people benefit from longer lives their need for NHS continuing health care (CHC) funding may increase due to associated co-morbidities. The purpose of the specification was to enable the ICB to commission quality care in a timely way and at a value that is clearly understood for patients within the scope of All Age Continuing Care (AACC) services arranged by the ICB for individuals whose care needs are met in their home. This includes individuals who require palliative and end of life care who are eligible for AACC.

This service was for the care for individuals over the age of 18yrs in receipt of standard or Fast Track CHC funding for whom NHS Lincolnshire ICB are the responsible commissioner.  It specifies the services were to be delivered by providers. 

This requirement sets out predetermined, common quality and cost requirements to be delivered by all providers across all zones. 

The preferred delivery vehicle for CHC funded home care is via a personal health budget as mandated by NHSE/I. The delivery vehicle may be via a:
•	notional budget, 
•	third party budget
•	or direct payment budget.

The ICB work in partnership with the provider responsible for each zone in respect of extremely complex cases to ensure that the individuals needs are safely met.

The service aims are to deliver:
•	Improved responsiveness to requests for care for CHC patients from home care providers in each zone. 
•	Improved quality of the care commissioned by the ICB
•	High quality provision of treatment, management, and support to enable individuals to remain in their home setting. 
•	Personalised care based on the level of need 
•	Care in line with NICE recommendation
•	A consistent approach to the brokerage of care packages. The ICB may commission very complex packages from a specialist service should the need arise.

There were 7 lots/zones where the Bidders had the option to bid for one, all or any combination of the zones (bidder are awarded a maximum of 3 zones). The Zones were set out in the tender documentation, with maps and indicative activity. The activity is paid based on tariffs as details in the tender documentation. The duration of the contract is 3 years with the option to extend for a further 2 years.

Providers bid via EU Supply under Quote/tender 59519 - Homecare Services in Lincolnshire.

TAMESIDE AND OLDHAM BREASTFEEDING PEER SUPPORT SERVICE

There is overwhelming evidence that proves breastfeeding provides substantial health and wellbeing benefits for mothers and babies which are experienced well beyond the period of breastfeeding itself. As well as contributing significantly to reducing health inequalities, benefits of breastfeeding can be categorised to the following: • Infant health: Breastfeeding protects children from a vast range of illnesses including infection, diabetes, asthma, heart disease and obesity, as well as cot death (sudden infant death syndrome). • Maternal health: Breastfeeding protects mothers from breast and ovarian cancers and heart disease. • Relationship-building: Breastfeeding supports the mother-baby attachment and relationship and the mental health of both baby and mother. Tameside and Oldham have significantly lower rates of breastfeeding initiation and 6-8 weeks continuation, compared to the England average. Therefore, Tameside Council, in partnership with Oldham Council, are looking to contract with a provider to implement and deliver a Breastfeeding Peer Support Service. It is expected that the Breastfeeding Peer Support Service will contribute to promoting a social and cultural shift where breastfeeding is viewed as the conventional way to feed a baby, as well as providing one to one and groups support.

Joint Venture Partnership in Private Healthcare Provision - UHD

Opportunity for Joint Venture Partnership in Private Healthcare Provision University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust University Hospitals Dorset (UHD) is on a transformative journey to become home to the UK’s largest planned care hospital, offering an unrivalled breadth and volume of elective services. As part of this ambitious programme, we are seeking a high-calibre private healthcare operator to join us as a Joint Venture (JV) partner. This is a unique opportunity to co-develop and grow our Private Patient (PP) services in a way that aligns with our core values and benefits the wider population. We are not seeking capital investment or construction partners. Instead, we are focused on finding a strategic service partner—a proven operator in private healthcare with a strong track record of delivering high-quality, patient-centred care. Dorset represents a significant growth market for private care, currently under-served relative to demand. A successful private offering will not only provide greater choice for patients but also support UHD’s mission to maximise the impact of our £900m NHS budget on the health and wellbeing of our community. UHD is midway through a £550 million estates and service transformation programme. With excellent clinical teams and a strong operational foundation already in place, we are ready to expand our private care capabilities in partnership with an organisation that shares our commitment to excellence, integrity, and innovation. We are now inviting expressions of interest from suitably qualified JV private healthcare partners. Following this stage, an open tender will be conducted and interested parties will be invited to participate in a tender exercise where a partner will be selected to form a strategic partnership with UHD. For more information, please visit our UHD website and submit your expression of interest no later than 14:00 on the 13th of June. EOI Submissions should be made directly via email to [email protected] and should include a brief overview of your organisation, and a short description of your experience in this area with contact details where tender invites can be sent.
