Description
NHS North West London ICB required the provision of various Enhanced Primary Care Services
covering the total registered population across multiple General Practice (GP) and Primary Care Network (PCN) sites from 1st April 2023.
Following the issuing of an FTS notice on 17th March 2023, reference number 2023/S 000-007871, the NHS North West London ICB has now initiated new PCN level contracts (NHS Standard Contract) for a period of three (3) years with the option to extend by a further two (2) year period, until 31st March 2028 (estimated value £68,300,000 per annum).
The contracts have been designed to deliver a range of enhanced primary care services via 45 PCNs, via the lead practice or where the PCN has formed a legal entity, (with GP practices subcontractors) in each of the 8 boroughs in North West London. Full patient population coverage has been made central to improve local care and reduce variability in people's outcomes. This will ensure that every patient has access to the full range of services offered.
Specifications within the contracts are for out of hospital services to include services such as phlebotomy, ECG, diabetes, mental health and are outcomes based.
PCN level contracts have been designed to focus on improving clinical outcomes, driving improvements in the consistency of care provision in all GP practices, reduce unwarranted variation in general practice and reduce health and care inequalities for the whole population it serves.
NHS NW London ICB is of the view that the PCNs, via a lead practice or where they are a legal entity, in the 8 boroughs of North West London are the only providers capable of delivering these services because the member practices have access to the registered list of patients. This enables them to proactively identify patients and have access to the entire patient medical record. This enables continuity of care and provision of services at a location closer to the patient's home.
The awarded supplier linked to this notice is one of the 45 PCNs.
