two.1.4) Short description
Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG are publishing this call for competition, for community dermatology services for the South West Hampshire locality only for a period of two years. A two year contract is required in the South West Hampshire locality to allow the HSIOW CCG to undertake a review of the community dermatology model and services from August 2023 in order to cover an interim period due to the following upcoming changes:
The South West Hampshire locality currently has a Community Dermatology service model, which was commissioned by the previous West Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). In April 2021, the West Hampshire CCG merged with five other local CCGs to become part of a single Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG (HSIOW CCG). In July 2022, the HSIOW CCG will in turn be dissolved with its functions transferring into a new HSIOW Integrated Care System (ICS).
The integration of CCGs and establishment of the ICS provides an opportunity to establish a service improvement approach across a wider geography, in order to deliver improved outcomes, experience and efficiency. As such, this has the potential to change the landscape and alter requirements, as does the lessons being learned from the Covid-19 pandemic, which has resulted in different ways of working and patient/clinical behaviours.
In respect of the Dermatology service specifically, our intention is to undertake a thorough review of the current service model and provision, encompassing service redesign and reconfiguration options, and population insights, as well as looking to the market for innovations in Dermatology services. This review will inform longer term commissioning strategies and potential tender opportunities for Community Dermatology.
As a result, the Authority intends to award a two-year contract for Community Dermatology in South West Hampshire.
The Service will;
• Deliver a comprehensive Consultant Led Tier 2 Community Dermatology Service which provides appropriate and timely diagnosis and treatment of patients in a community setting
• Provide a higher level of knowledge, experience and skill than usually found or expected in Primary Care therefore not duplicating services provided by an element of the core GMS/PMS contracted activity of through Direct Enhanced Services for Minor Surgery Agreements.
• Relieve pressure on acute Dermatology services at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust, particularly for suspected cancer referrals by forming close working relationships and pathways of care with the local Trust, ensuring only those patients requiring secondary care interventions are referred on
• Continually improve quality and patient experience with reduced waiting times and delivery of one stop assessment, diagnosis and treatment services for all patients where appropriate
The South West Local Delivery System is approximately 342,117 registered population, over 4 localities and 26 GP Practices

This notice is an opportunity to express an interest in the delivery of the interim contact, however if no expressions of interest are received from alternative providers, the CCG intends to extend the contract with its incumbent providers to ensure service continuity whilst the service review is undertaken, under the Regulation 32 exemption from procurement if no expressions of interest are received.
It is anticipated that the legal landscape governing procurement of NHS contracts is due to change i. The CCG reserves the right to amend of abandon the procurement process in response to any legislative changes that may occur.
The new 24 month contract will be subject to TUPE of existing staff from the incumbent provider.
