Medway has an integrated sexual health service that delivers HIV Treatment and Care services in partnership with NHS England. Our joint vision is to recommission an Integrated Sexual & Reproductive Health Service (including outpatient HIV Treatment and Care). Medway Council in partnership with NHS England (the Contracting Authorities) is seeking suitably qualified and experienced organisation/s to provide this service. The Service provision will be divided into two elements with both elements awarded to one and the same lead provider.

The annual budget of Element 2 is capped at £529,722 per year. Element 1 will be procured using the Competitive Dialogue procedure to incorporate additional innovation into a well-established and effective service.
