## About this tender

NHS England is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from providers who have the capability and capacity to undertake a contract for the provision of a Breast Screening Programme in Surrey and North East Hampshire, and would wish to take to part in a potential procurement exercise.

The procurement is likely to take place in Spring and Summer 2016 and the contract is due to begin in April 2017.

The initial contract duration is currently anticipated to be 3-5 years, excluding any possible extensions, but this is subject to approval and the precise term will be advised at a later date. It will have an annual value in the region of Â£3million, with an eligible population of approximately 187,000 women aged 50-70, as well as half of the 49,500 women who are 47 to 49 or 71 to 73 as part of the national age extension trial funded separately by PHE.

The successful bidder will be required to deliver a screening programme which is fully compliant with all relevant national standards and pathways and which includes the following elements:

â&#128;¢ Identification and invitation of the eligible female population for screening at appropriate intervals (i.e. call/recall) in accordance with national guidance

â&#128;¢ Provide appropriate information to allow women to make an informed choice about whether or not to participate in screening

â&#128;¢ Provide high quality, accessible, effective people-centred mammography screening services

â&#128;¢ Ensure GPs are informed of screening in their area, and the final outcomes of screening invitations for each of their patients

â&#128;¢ Undertake assessment and diagnosis of individuals with abnormal initial tests and accurately diagnose cancers, with reference to MDT decisions, and refer women for treatment by appropriately trained and qualified specialists in accordance with nationally agreed protocols and treatment pathways

â&#128;¢ Manage screening according to national protocols for women with specific conditions which place them at high risk for developing breast cancer

â&#128;¢ Work with other local stakeholders to maximise uptake, improve quality and tackle inequalities and improve outcomes.

The population expected to be served by the programme will be those covered by the following 6 CCGs: NHS East Surrey; NHS Guildford and Waverley; NHS North East Hampshire and Farnham, NHS North West Surrey, NHS Surrey Heath and NHS Surrey Downs.

If you wish to express an interest in taking part in a future procurement exercise to identify a provider to deliver these services in Surrey and North East Hampshire, please register on the In-Tend portal and submit a completed Provider Sounding Questionnaire by 12pm on Monday 7th March 2016.
