two.1.4) Short description
NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit (AGCSU) on behalf of Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes Integrated Care Board (ICB) (referred to as the Commissioner) sought expressions of interest from providers who currently hold a general medical services (GMS) contract to deliver primary medical services at Kingfisher Surgery, Newport Pagnell, as a branch surgery with the current patient list (by allocation while noting patient registration choice) from 1st April 2024.

two.2.4) Description of the procurement
Kingfisher Surgery has an actual patient list size of 6798 and weighted 6425.44 as of September 2023. The ICB has a strong desire that the current premises located at Elthorne Way, Newport Pagnell MK16 0JR are maintained within primary care ensuring adequate access, capacity, and resilience for general practice services. The ICB therefore decided the most appropriate way to achieve this aim is to offer this practice as a branch surgery with patient list to GMS providers, thus retaining the current premises with managed list dispersal to the successful bidder.
Please note in terms of the advertised contract length, this is a GMS contract, meaning it will be held in perpetuity despite what the contract end date may say in the notice due to system limitations.
