Description

NHS South of England Procurement Services (SoEPS), acting on behalf of Health Education England (HEE - the Commissioner) are commencing a tender for the provision of General Practice Specialty Trainee (GPST) Medical Indemnity Insurance across London and Kent, Surrey and Sussex HEE Regions.

HEE (London, Kent Surrey & Sussex) are currently looking to establish a single and block Provider of Medical Indemnity Insurance for all its General Practice Specialty Trainees (GPST), whilst working in Primary Care settings, and within its training schemes situated within the locations listed above.

The contract renewal date after three years for both Lots would be 01 August 2021 with a maximum final contact end date of 01 August 2023 (allowing for an optional extension of up to two years subject to satisfactory performance), giving a maximum contract length of five years.
