Description

The UK NSC is looking to appoint a competent supplier to undertake a piece of cost-effectiveness modelling to understand the conditions under which harms will outweigh benefits for the offer of HPV self-sampling in the UK. This is particularly important given that testing for HPV on a vaginal/urine self-sample could be slightly less sensitive than a clinician taken cervical sample. Therefore, modelling is required to understand how the self-sampling offer under different uptake scenarios could impact on the number of screen-detected HPV and treated cervical lesion.
Contract Project Reference: C253383
Title: DHSC_PCP_HPV Self-sampling Cost Effectiveness Model
Contract term: 18 months with the option to extend for a period of up to 6 months.
Estimated contract value (including extensions): £250,000 excluding VAT (£300,000 including VAT).
