Description

Hertfordshire and West Essex ICB are inviting care providers to join us in shaping a new approach to the way we commission Domiciliary Care across our area.

We want to deliver better outcomes for the ICS, for care providers and for individuals in receipt of care through a standardised service specification and procurement process.

Over the coming months we will work with our care providers and other local partners to co-develop a bespoke service specification for a new Domiciliary Care Any Qualified Provider (AQP) framework.

Your involvement will help us to develop a service specification that builds on your experience and reflects your understanding of what is required to support care providers and individuals in receipt of care.

We will run a procurement process at the end of the year based on this new specification and would, welcome your participation.

We intend for the Domiciliary Care AQP to go-live next summer.

Hertfordshire and West Essex ICB have commissioned Evalucom to implement the Domiciliary Care AQP.

We will host an online Q&A session to give you further information about our plans and give you the opportunity to ask us questions. This will take place on Wednesday 28 September 2022 at 1pm. Please email the team at HWE.DomCareAQP@evalucom.co.uk to register a place.

We will send updates by email. If you want to add an alternative contact to our mailing list, please send an email to the team at: HWE.DomCareAQP@evalucom.co.uk. Please include your name, your role and details of your domiciliary care organisation.

We encourage you to share this email with any colleagues or partners that might also be interested in being part of this co-development process.

We look forward to working closely with you over the coming months.

Kind regards,

Hertfordshire and West Essex ICB
&
Evalucom team
