Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG Invitation to Tender (ITT) for Community Dermatology Services for a 24 month contract with optional 12 month extension period. Please note the total potential contract value is for the maximum full 3 year period across all three Lot's.

Skin conditions are extremely common, and more than half the population are affected annually. It is estimated that each year approximately 24% of the population see their GPs for skin disease, and there were 3 million outpatient appointments for patients with dermatological conditions in the UK in 2019-20. Although the most common skin disorders are not life threatening, if not treated appropriately patients can suffer harm and longer-term health problems. The psychological impact on everyday life, work, social interaction, and healthy living can be substantial. Many of the rare and some of the severe common skin conditions have an associated morbidity and mortality thus early and accurate diagnosis is critical to appropriate management. Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the UK and dermatology services receive more urgent referrals for suspected cancer than any other speciality. The unmet demand from new suspected cancers can mean that review appointments for patients with other painful and debilitating conditions are delayed.

Changes in health service provision and the need to commission high-quality cost-effective services, has in part driven the move to deliver certain services and specialties more appropriately in the community setting. There is a recognition of the importance of patients receiving care closer to home, shifting from a traditional model of hospital-based care towards a community-based approach where appropriate; this in turn supports delivery of NHS constitutional waiting times for consultant-led services by freeing-up capacity and reducing waiting times.

Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG published three Prior Information Notices (PINs) in February 2022 regarding re-procurement of existing Community Dermatology Services. These PINs requested that the market submit expressions of interest for the provision of Community Dermatology Services in three separate Local Delivery Systems. Due to receiving multiple expressions of interest across all three Local Delivery Systems, the CCG have decided to run one competitive procurement split into three lots. This will enable the compliance and regulatory checks as part of the tender process to be completed once per provider. Under this procurement approach, providers still have the same opportunity to bid for one or multiple areas.

To access the full ITT document set, specification and Contract please register on In-tend project reference number F5491 Community Dermatology Services. Please note the deadline for tender submissions is 12:00 noon 6th June 2022.
