Description

NHS Midlands and Lancashire Commissioning Support Unit (CSU) are working on behalf of NHS South Sefton CCG and NHS Southport & Formby CCG to award a contract for a Stoma Prescription Service for patients living in the CCGs areas.

From early November 2019, a new pilot service is being introduced by both CCGs with the aim of significantly improving the quality of care and support for around 750 stoma patients in the borough.
The Sefton Stoma Prescription Service will make it easy for patients to order all the appliances and products they need. Additionally, the 12 month pilot service will give patients access to advice from specialist stoma nurses and an individualised care review to ensure they are always prescribed the best products for their differing needs.
Coloplast, who specialises in supporting ostomates, is running the pilot prescribing and ordering service, working together with GP practices and community and hospital based stoma teams. Patients will continue to have the choice of which organisation or company they would like their stoma appliances and products dispensed from.
The pilot will be monitored closely by the CCGs throughout the year to make sure it works well for patients.

**Please note that this award is a twelve-month pilot project and the CCGs intend to undertake a competitive procurement to award a contract with a commencement date of 1st November 2020 during the time of the pilot.
