description

NHS Merton Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is hosting a market engagement event to discuss its future plans for commissioning Primary Mental Health Care Services. The event will provide an opportunity for the CCG to describe its key objectives from the new service and give interested providers the opportunity to ask questions and shape some of the CCG's assumptions.

The new service will aim to:

1.Control access to, and facilitate discharge from, secondary mental health services
2.Increase patient numbers using the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services, thereby ensuring constitutional targets are met
3.Commission (clinically) effective, evidenced based interventions that deliver positive physical and mental health outcomes for local residents with enduring mental illnesses
4.Contribute positively to the wider local health economy, reducing health service utilisation and cost, particularly through:
(a)treatment of people with long term conditions (LTCs) affecting their physical health with clinically effective therapies for common mental health problems, and
(b)supporting people with long term mental illness to maintain good physical health.
5.The CCG's aim is to enter into a single contract for these services, which could be with a provider who can lead a consortium of providers, whether from the NHS, the private sector, or the voluntary and community sector or an alternative model. The provider will need to demonstrate good links with physical/acute services to provide holistic services to the local population.

The service may be worth up to £3m per annum and the CCG's current intention is to let the contract for an initial term of up to three years with a potential for a further two year extension, commencing from April 2019.

Note that the value and length of contract is still to be confirmed. Bidders will be encouraged to give their views on the length and value of the contract during the market engagement phase of activity.

The event will take place on 23 July 2018 2.30pm to 4.30pm in Room 6.3, 6th Floor, NHS Merton and Wandsworth CCG, 120 The Broadway, Wimbledon, SW19 1RH.

Please note attendance will be limited to two people per organisation.

Interested organisations can register to attend the event by completing and returning the attached registration form to Rachel.Parker@swlondon.nhs.uk by close of business on 20 July 2018. Further enquiries to Patrice.Beveney@swlondon.nhs.uk
