Description

West Essex CCG wished to implement an Any Qualified Provider framework of suitably capable providers to deliver Adult 16+ Micro Suction Services (ACEMS) across the West Essex CCG locality.

The Any Qualified Provider (AQP) model is an accreditation process underpinned by a 'call-off' of a Provider's services determined according to patient choice.

There are a large number of patients treated for ENT conditions every year. It is estimated that approximately 6,500 ENT outpatient appointments are attended every year in West Essex. Reducing unnecessary referrals into secondary care should prove to be cost effective, as well as delivering high-quality care in the community and increasing patient choice.

The service seeks to provide a safe and effective high quality Micro Suction Service which avoids unnecessary hospital attendances for patients who can be managed in a community / primary care setting.

The evaluation process has concluded with the contract being awarded.
