Description

NWL CCG currently has a Whole System Integrated Care/Integrated Care Partnership (WSIC/ICP) service in Brent, which provides a multi-layer level of investment across Primary Care to deliver an integrated model of working between healthcare professionals, patient and carers in the management of long term conditions. This model puts GP-patient relationship at the centre and uses the GP register as a source for population health management. The WSIC model provides functions and services designed to support integrated and coordinated care for adults with complex long term conditions.

The key service requirements are:
•Risk stratification and proactive case finding from Population Health management via the WISC dashboard and GP registered lists
•Proactive care planning - Enhanced care planning,
•Multidisciplinary case management - enhanced mainstream care and intensive case management for a subset of patients.
•Support to self-care: Support tailoring of care plans and care delivery
•Weekly Complex Patient Management Groups (CPMG) - case management meetings hosted by each Network's Core Team
•Weekly Multidisciplinary Group meetings - hosted by and within each GP Network with the participation of individual GP practices, CPMG members, integrated Care Management team and specialists as required
•Enhanced Care Plan review - regular review and review in response to trigger events by the patient's own GP, with onward referral and case management as required.

The CCG currently has a contract in place with three (3) providers; Harness Care Co-operative Ltd, K&W Healthcare Limited and Kilburn Care Co-operative Ltd to provide the above services. The term of these contracts is 12 months, 1st April 2021 - 31st March 2022 (combined value: £2,069,385.50). CCG is committed to assess the needs of the service users and consider how (if relevant) it needs to secure the needs of the people who use the services, and improve the quality and efficiency in the provision of the services including through the services being provided in an integrated way.

NWL CCG is of the view that the services described are capable of being provided only by the three suppliers above, as these are Federation level contracts delivered in collaboration with Primary Care at practice level. The purpose of this notice is to be transparent about the CCG's intentions and to invite anyone interested in delivering the services described above to contact us by 11th April 2022.

A new contract will be initiated with the above providers for 12 months whilst a review of the services is undertaken. Should capable parties come forward we would be interested in them stating their interest as we proceed with the review and look at our options for the future.

During 2022, it is anticipated that NWL CCG will be succeeded by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future contract and/or procurement opportunity may therefore be in the name of the ICB.
