Description

LCC is inviting suitably experienced provider/s to tender for the opportunity to deliver a NHS Health Check programme in Communities, the Workplace and Places of Worship settings in Lancashire. The tender is being offered in two lots:

Lot 1 NHS Health Checks in Communities (£400,000 capped budget per annum);

Lot 2 NHS Health Checks in Workplaces and Places of Worship (£200,000 capped budget per annum).

NHS Health Check is a national programme which aims to prevent heart disease, stroke, and diabetes and kidney disease. The programme systematically targets the top seven causes of preventable mortality: high blood pressure, smoking, cholesterol, obesity, poor diet, physical inactivity and alcohol consumption.

Around 15 million people in England are eligible for a Health Check. Men and women aged 40-74 who have not been diagnosed with an existing vascular disease or being treated for certain risk factors should be offered an NHS Health Check every five years. It is part of the mandated public health functions of local authorities.

Aims and objectives of service:

Lancashire County Councils aim is that 20% of the eligible population is offered a health check every year. The aspirational uptake target is for 75% of those invited to attend. Providing opportunistic offers for NHS Health Checks across a variety of workplace and community settings will ensure equity and increase access to and uptake of health checks for citizens residing in Lancashire.
