Why this procedure was chosen
Nairn Health Care Group are currently contracted to deliver this service to the population of Nairn and Ardersier, and as the sole practice within the Nairn area (following a merger in 2012) they are the only practice that can deliver this service. Nairn Health Care Group have delivered this service in the area for over 15 years with no concerns regarding service delivery. They are based within the Hospital, meaning they can deliver the service with no operational/organisational change. A tender exercise was undertaken in 2023, resulting in a single submission from Nairn Health Care Group. This further evidences the rationale for proceeding with the VEAT (Voluntary Ex-Ante Transparency) process.
