RFI for Tier 3 Weight Management Service

Request for Information (RFI) by East Sussex CCGs

Commissioners across Sussex CCG areas including Crawley, Horsham and Mid-Sussex, Brighton and Hove, Coastal West Sussex, High Weald Lewes Havens, Hastings and Rother and Eastbourne, Hailsham and Seaford are all considering the procurement or re-procurement of Tier 3 Weight Management for service commencement in April 2018.

The East Sussex CCGs do not have a Tier 3 service at this current time, including High Weald Lewes Havens CCG, Hastings and Rother CCG and Eastbourne, Hailsham and Seaford CCG. These CCGs have indicated a clear preference to deliver a level of service in the interim period from April 2017 to the 31 March 2018 and are considering the procurement of an interim Tier 3 Weight Management for service commencement in April 2017.

As part of the initial planning for this interim service, the East Sussex CCGs are seeking views and comments on the interim service which we are seeking through a number of set questions below.

We have included a potential DRAFT service specification for reference, which is based on current service available across West Sussex for those on a surgical pathway. The final specification(s) will be made available for any future procurement exercise.

If you would like to discuss any aspects of the requirements, please contact either of the CCG contacts provided in the RFI form below.

To access and download the specification and response template please follow the weblinks at the bottom of this advert.
