Opportunity overview
This is a Most Suitable Provider Process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intended approach notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust requires additional outsourced outpatient clinic and theatre capacity to increase overall capacity for ENT. Extremely high demand, driven by the unprecedented backlog created due to the Covid-19 pandemic, is resulting in severe delays for routine care. In order to meet a proportion of this demand, it has been proposed to procure additional capacity from an independent provider via an outsourced model. The contracted services are anticipated to provide an initial capacity increase of up to 1000 outpatient appointments and 220 surgical procedures.
