## About this tender

Opportunity for Joint Venture Partnership in Private Healthcare Provision

### University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust

University Hospitals Dorset (UHD) is on a transformative journey to become home to the UK’s largest planned care hospital, offering an unrivalled breadth and volume of elective services.

As part of this ambitious programme, we are seeking a high-calibre private healthcare operator to join us as a Joint Venture (JV) partner. This is a unique opportunity to co-develop and grow our Private Patient (PP) services in a way that aligns with our core values and benefits the wider population.

We are not seeking capital investment or construction partners. Instead, we are focused on finding a strategic service partner-a proven operator in private healthcare with a strong track record of delivering high-quality, patient-centred care.

Dorset represents a significant growth market for private care, currently under-served relative to demand. A successful private offering will not only provide greater choice for patients but also support UHD’s mission to maximise the impact of our £900m NHS budget on the health and wellbeing of our community.

UHD is midway through a £550 million estates and service transformation programme. With excellent clinical teams and a strong operational foundation already in place, we are ready to expand our private care capabilities in partnership with an organisation that shares our commitment to excellence, integrity, and innovation.

We are now inviting expressions of interest from suitably qualified JV private healthcare partners. Following this stage, an open tender will be conducted and interested parties will be invited to participate in a tender exercise where a partner will be selected to form a strategic partnership with UHD.

For more information, please visit our UHD website and submit your expression of interest no later than 14:00 on the 13th of June.

EOI Submissions should be made directly via email to  and should include a brief overview of your organisation, and a short description of your experience in this area with contact details where tender invites can be sent.
