## About this tender

NHS West Kent CCG (the Commissioner) invites suitably qualified and experienced provider(s) to bid for the provision of Level 3 and 4 Dermatology Services for West Kent patients. The service is expected to undertake a full range of Dermatology treatments.

The CCG is seeking to commission the service with the following objectives:

-Deliver a high quality clinical dermatology care that supports patients to live their lives as fully as possible.

-Actively helps improve dermatology skills and competencies in primary care more generally.

-Supports and educates patients to self-manage their skin conditions and prevent complications.

The service will deliver diagnosis, treatment and management of a range of dermatological conditions across community and secondary care settings. The service will be consultant led but not exclusively consultant delivered, ensuring joint working across all levels and referrals pathways.

-Skin lesions pre malignant or of an uncertain nature.

-Suspected BCCs- assessment, excision, onward referral.

The level 4 service will include those conditions that can only be undertaken by secondary care teams and will include the 2ww pathway.

The Commissioner is supported in this project by NHS South East CSU (the CSU) and its procurement partner NHS Commercial Solutions (NHSCS), which is managing this procurement.
