Description

The purpose of this Notice is to invite market operators to a Market Engagement Event for the potential future exercise to procure services supporting the development of an innovative obesity pathway in North East and North Cumbria on Thursday 8th January at 10:45 via Teams Integrated Care Board (NENC ICB) is developing a new, community-first obesity pathway as part of the Obesity Pathway Innovation Programme (OPIP). The pathway will support adults with obesity who are waiting lists or at risk of economic activity due to obesity and related long-term conditions. To enable this at scale, NENC ICB is exploring options to procure a digital partner to provide an integrated platform that will act as the digital "spine" for the pathway. The intended service is expected to support the following: 1. Identification and invitation of eligible patients (for example via population-health tools and waiting-list data) 2. Digital referral, consent and triage 3. Patient-facing tools for self-assessment, remote monitoring and behavioural support (including AI meal planning) 4. Role based portals for community pharmacies, specialist teams and programme staff. The platform will need to integrate with existing NHS systems (for example NHS App, GP clinical systems and provider electronic patient records), support high standards of clinical safety, information governance and cybersecurity, and generate data and dashboards required for independent evaluation of outcomes, equity and value for money. This Market Engagement Event is intended to help NENC ICB understand the capabilities, innovations and constraints within the digital health market, and to test our emerging requirements and delivery approach. Feedback from suppliers will be used to refine any future specification and procurement strategy for these services.
