Technical requirements: NHS Midlands and Lancashire Commissioning Support Unit (MLCSU) on behalf of the commissioner, NHS Worcestershire CCGs – is seeking to engage with potential Providers for the Provision of Dementia Post-Diagnostic Support Pathway for Worcestershire County.
The CCG are looking to commission comprehensive community-based Dementia Post-Diagnostic Pathway for Worcestershire residents. The service will aim to provide a high-quality service for patients who are registered with Worcestershire CCG GP Practices. The service will be based on best practice and will provide appropriate assessment, community services support, follow up treatment, review and discharge.
The current service provision for Dementia Post Diagnostic Support has been reviewed. Commissioners propose to procure a single service to provide all elements of the existing contracts, aligning with primary care/neighbourhood team structures to ensure a more targeted provision based on population need.
The service provider(s) will be required to work collaboratively with existing providers as part of an integrated, evidence based approach to patient care. The CCG anticipates that this future procurement will be awarded to one service provider or a lead provider on behalf of a consortium.
The aim of the event will be to engage with potential providers for these services in order to share the commissioning intentions of the CCG, and to seek the input from providers on a number important aspects relating to the services, including the service specification. At the event there will be an opportunity for providers to network with other providers and commissioners.
The CCG would like to assess the current market appetite to provide this service and identify any barriers to successful implementation. The outcomes of the event will then determine next steps.
