Description
NHS Wiltshire Clinical Commissioning Group (WCCG) undertook a pilot for a community-based Heart Failure Service in Sarum. The information captured therein was used to inform a countywide procurement which was abandoned prior to award as it was identified during the procurement that that further exploration was required across the wider CCG STP footprint to inform a countywide service.
Whilst further exploratory work is undertaken, WCCG will award an 18 month contract to Wilcodoc Limited to maintain continuity of provision for patients in the Sarum locality only.
To ensure continuity of service those who have been identified are the only capable provider of delivering the short term requirement as they have strong existing relationships, knowledge and experience of the current service delivery.
The value of the service awarded under this notice is £586,993 and the contract will be for a period of eighteen months from 1st October 2018 - 31st March 2020
New information has emerged since the original procurement and an options appraisal identified that further exploration and analysis is required across the wider STP CCG footprint in order to inform requirements for equitable and sustainable service(s) countywide that fully meets the needs of Wiltshire patients.
Different elements will be tested further including but not limited to:
• Rapid Access Diagnostic Service
• Urgent Patient Review
• Routine Patient Review
• Post Discharge FU
• Virtual ward management at home of unwell patients
• Self-Management and education programme for HF patients
• Cost model
• Wider community collaboration
• Pathways facing to three main acute providers
To enable this work to be completed WCCG will directly award a contract to:
