Description

This purpose of this Notice is to confirm that West Essex CCG have awarded a contract to Primary EyeCare Services.

This is a short term arrangement which will pilot the following 4 pathways: Post-Op Cataract; Glaucoma Repeat Readings; Glaucoma Data Gathering (Tier 1) and Glaucoma Monitoring (Tier 2). These pilots need to be undertaken closely together in order to deliver the extra capacity within the community for Ophthalmology and is based on the local Acute Trust receiving a high demand for services resulting in long waiting lists.

The services covered under this contract are not existing services. The pilot approach will allow the CCG to understand the new pathways and refine the delivery model so that there is a clear evidence base underpinning any future service which needs to be commissioned for our patient population on a longer-term basis.

The pilot will run for a period of 12 months, with the option to extend for a further 6 months, if required. This allows for full evaluation of services and a decision to be made on the longer-term commissioning and procurement of the service(s).
