Description

NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit (NHS Arden and GEM CSU) on behalf of NHS Milton Keynes Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) are inviting suitably qualified providers who are capable of delivering primary medical services at Whitehouse Health Centre, Western Expansion Area, Milton Keynes.

As a result of this procurement exercise an agreement will be established with the successful Bidder(s) for a period of 8 years (with the Commissioner having the option to extend the Contract for up to a further 2 years).

This is a new-build healthcare facility which will support the CCG's primary care vision of place-based care for total population health management and enable primary care to work at scale across the STP. The services must be GP led and provided by GPs, nurses and other clinical professionals or healthcare workers.

As this is a new service the patient list will be starting from zero, but it is estimated the list size will grow to approximately 11,000 over the duration of the contract.

The Practice will operate for core hours only - i.e. 8.00 a.m. to 6.30 p.m. Monday to Friday, excluding Bank Holidays.

The premises will be purpose built and the GP practice will initially be located on the ground floor, with space available on the first floor during the contract term as the list size grows. There will be 11 consulting rooms and 2 treatment rooms available in total to the Provider. Space within the building will be leased to other providers.

All fixtures, fittings and an IT system will be supplied but the successful provider will be responsible for fitting out the Practice (furniture and medical equipment) and a set-up fund of £200,000 maximum (first year only) will be made available by the Commissioner to do this.

The contract is expected to be awarded in February 2020. The building will be completed in early April and the Services are due to commence 1st July 2020.

Payment will be made on the basis of Global Sum plus 20% APMS premium per weighted patient for the first five years and then Global Sum plus 10% APMS premium per weighted patient for the remaining term. The first two years' payment will be guaranteed at a minimum number of patients. Any additional patients will be paid for at the Global Sum plus 20% rate. Year 3 onwards will be paid at actual weighted patient list size.

Further information and the ITT documentation can be found at https://uk.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=agcsu and bids must be submitted by 14:00 pm on 10th December 2019. The tender ID No. 35435.
