Email address where written representations should be sent: llricb-llr.contracting@nhs.net Details of the award decision-makers: NHS LLR ICB System Executive Committee, Strategic Commissioning Group on 14th of March 2025. The non-conflicted LLR ICB of System Exec Committee members have assessed the nature and the risk of this conflict and have decided to exclude any conflicted members from related discussions and decision-making. The Contracting Authority has assessed the provider's suitability and technical / professional ability to undertake this service based on their current activities and performance. The provider's economic and financial standing has been considered in proportion to the contract value and terms. Relative importance and rationale for the relative importance of the key criteria, and the rationale for choosing the provider with reference to the key criteria: 1. Quality and innovation The provider is achieving their current contract KPIs - where the patients with diagnostics are long waiting patients they are transferred to the provider to support the backlog at other providers, the provider is increasing capacity to ensure the system can support patients treated within 6 weeks. Quality and safeguarding compliance are assured via current contract management processes. 2. Value The provider offers some elective services at less than tariff , which has been evaluated as offering good value in terms of costs, and overall benefits to service users. 3. Integration, collaboration and service sustainability The provider works closely with General Practice, PCNs and Federations to provide a mechanism for a greater unified voice for General Practice. The provider has a strong emphasis on local collaborations and integrated care pathways, with a focus on patient satisfaction, local integrated clinical governance and meeting local health care needs. 4. Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice The provider manages the Referral Support Service. A wide range of specialties are triaged by clinicians via the e-RS referral portal and are clinically triaged to the most appropriate setting e.g., Secondary Care or a Community Service. Patients are offered the choice of appointment within LLR, which can be local to them, at a location with shorter waiting times or at a more convenient place for the patient. By offering choice of appointments in a community setting to patients, improves health inequalities and delivers the same improvements and access to care for all. Patients also have the option of choosing to be seen in an acute setting if that is what they prefer. 5. Social value The provider was created by LLR GPs in 2011. In 2021 it became a Community Interest Company. As a Community Interest Company, PCL reinvests back into the local healthcare community across LLR. This includes establishing an Equipment rental fund and supporting transformation and inequalities work such as supporting the agenda for the development of health and wellbeing hubs across LLR. By providing healthcare in the community setting, this is reducing carbon emissions by providing the service close and patients requiring to travel less.
