Description

Ingeus are seeking proposals from a specialist organisation to support the Functional Assessments with specialist reports and audiology as part of our service. These reports support DWP in assessing claims.

It is anticipated the service will require a provider to complete both face to face/virtual assessment and a report in some cases, in addition to desk based only reports based on medical evidence and application information supplied by the Claimants. Proposals should split out these separate services and associated costs.
Specialist Reports required on a call off basis will include Face to Face Assessment Reports, Remote Assessments Reports and Desktop Reports in the following specialisms:
Audiologist, Oncologist, Ophthalmologist, Orthopaedic Surgeon,
Psychiatrist, Rheumatologist, Neurologist, Neuro Surgeon, Psychologist, Xray plus radiology report, Spirometry
All other specialists or transport requests may be required on call off basis.

There will be no minimum volumes commitments, although we expect to make between 3 and 10 referrals per month. We will work with the successful provide to support demand forecasting and planning during the contract delivery.
