  • This is an INTENTION TO AWARD Notice following The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 - Competitive Process. This is an intention to award notice to advise that the relevant authority intends to award a contract under a competitive process under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Procurement Regulations 2024 (Procurement Act 2023) and/ or Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. This intention to award notice is in relation to: Leasowe Medical Practice Alternative Provider Medical Services, including Special Allocation Scheme. Leasowe Medical Centre is a general practice managed by an Alternative Provider Medical Services (APMS) contract. The contract will deliver primary medical services to the registered patients of Leasowe Medical Practice. This will cover the essential and additional primary medical services as specified in the General Medical Services (GMS) contract to ensure consistency in core care provision, in addition to any enhanced services detailed within the APMS specification. The Provider will deliver the Special Allocation Scheme as part of this APMS specification and will also have voluntary access to sign up to local incentive schemes as commissioned by the commissioner. Contract Start Date: 01 April 2026 Contract End Date: 31 March 2036 The contract term is for an initial period of 4 years, with an option to extend for a further 3 years, plus the option to extend for an additional 3 years, at the discretion of the Relevant Authority and subject to satisfactory contractual and financial performance. NHS Cheshire and Merseyside ICB has a set price of £112.50 for the Capitation Payments per weighted patient. This amount will be reduced by 4.75% to account for the Out of Hours opt-outs resulting in a net price per weighted patient of £107.16. This capitation payment is designed to cover the Essential & Additional Services element of the contract as per the NHS (General Medical Services Contracts) Regulations. Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) will be paid under the same arrangements as GMS Practices. The ICB has pre-populated the estimated revenue for QOF based on the 2024/25 price per point, the practices list size and the National Average list size as of 1st January 2025. The calculation assumes full achievement of 635 points. Therefore, the estimated revenue for Year 1 is £339,549 per annum, and £337,048 per annum for Years 2-10 of the contract. The total revenues for the full 10 year contract term are £3,372,990. This is an Existing Service and a new provider. Additional information: Please note: The contract notice referenced in Section IV.2.1 is incorrect for this service. Due to an administrative error, the correct notice cannot be linked directly. The correct contract notice for NHSE915 - Leasowe Medical Practice APMS and Special Allocation Scheme is 2025/S 000-011939.Value not stated
