Description
South East London Clinical Commissioning Group (on behalf of all London CCGs) have stated their intention to commission a provider to provide a comprehensive end-to-end commissioning support service to London CCGs for purchased health care for Continuing Healthcare in Care Homes and Domiciliary Care. Both services will be commissioned under a single contract.
The current AQP is in place to provide a consistent approach for CCGs to manage the market for care home beds providing a price which is fair and equitable, allowing for a more sustainable provision both financially and non-financially including quality of provision. NHS CHC refers to a package of on-going care that is arranged and funded by the NHS where a person has a "primary health need" - this care takes the form of a care home placement.
The CCGs are seeking bids from suitably qualified and experienced continuing healthcare commissioning support service providers who can provide demonstrable evidence of a record of accomplishment in delivering high quality and effective continuing healthcare commissioning support services.
Both services under the new contract must be operational by the 1st of April 2022. The maximum contract term of 4 years (3yrs + 1yr optional extension), the indicative value over a 3-year contract period is (£2.31-2.89 million)
Interested Bidders must access the ITT documentation via the link provided and submit a ITT response via the online questionnaires on the e-Tendering portal 'ProContract' before the submission deadline stipulated. See the procurement documentation (ITT Document 1 - Guidance Document) for more details.

All completed bids must be submitted by 12.00 (noon) on Friday 10 September 2021 (any changes to tender submission timelines will be communicated to interested providers via the tender portal). The ITT reference for this tender is PRJ979.
In line with the Health and Care Bill it is envisaged that CCGs will be abolished and replaced by Integrated Care Boards (ICBs). Any reference to CCGs as Contracting Authorities in this procurement should be interpreted as referring to the ICBs that will take their place in due course
