Description

A Community Carpal Tunnel Decompression service for adults that supports the appropriate management of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in the community and reduces the number of referrals to the acute unless complex decompression procedure is necessary. This ensures that decompression surgery is only provided when conservative treatment has failed to reduce symptoms. here is a need for an urgent award of contracts for Community Carpal Tunnel Decompression service for adults for a period of 6 months (01st April 2025- 31st October 2025) with an option to extend for a further 6 months (01st November 2025 - 31March 2026) to ensure sufficient time for the procurement and that there is no risk to patient safety through increased (long) waiting times unless an arrangement is in place for 1 April 2025 as all access would then be referred into MSEFT who have confirmed they cannot absorb the activity within current capacity. The current contract with the incumbent (Provide Wellbeing Limited ) expires on 31st March 2025 and as a consequence there is a requirement to award a 6 month contract from 01st April 2025 to 31st October 2026 with an option to extend for a further 6 months 01st November 2025 to 31st March 2026. The value is a £0 value contract – paid at local prices – planning value for 2024-25 is £19,688 which is subject to any uplift applied to 2025-26.
