## About this tender

Lewisham Clinical Commissioning Group will be tendering for a contract to deliver community bed-based rehabilitation (intermediate care beds) for its' patients.

Bed-based intermediate care addresses those instances when a person's level of need means they require intermediate care in a setting other than their own home. In Lewisham bed-based intermediate care is a time limited episode of care (of up to 6 weeks), commissioned by the CCG and supported by the Local Authority.

Patients are referred to bed-based intermediate care either as a 'step up' from home for assessment and rehabilitation - as an alternative to hospital admission - or as a 'step down' from the acute hospital for a period of assessment and/or rehabilitation before they return home.

Lewisham Clinical Commissioning Group (LCCG) currently commissions 25 rehabilitation beds (including 6 with double handed support) for patients resident in Lewisham and registered with a Lewisham GP. The maximum length of stay in these rehab beds is six weeks, during which time the service aims to improve the patient's functionality and physical ability. Rehabilitation care is led by a multi-disciplinary team from Lewisham & Greenwich NHS Trust and supported by the bed provider, so that care plans are also followed out of hours. Anticipated service outcomes include a measurable improvement in patient functionality and reducing the risk of an avoidable hospital admission

We anticipate that the initial contract period will be for a term of 3 years, with the possibility of extending the term up to a further 2 years beyond the initial contracted duration. This will be subject to satisfactory performance and by mutual agreement between the Commissioners and the Provider. The CCG wishes to make every effort to inform and engage with the market prior to launching this procurement. Therefore, a pre-procurement market engagement event will be held to seek feedback from potential providers on the different options that will enable the CCG to meet requirements and deliver a model for community bed-based rehabilitation care over the life of the contract.

Additional information: Below is a brief summary of the event:

The purpose of this event is to give potential bidders an overview of the Lewisham Community Bed Based Rehabilitation Service Specification and allow potential bidders the opportunity to ask questions about the specification. It is also to advise potential bidders of the procurement process and the anticipated timeline, as well as other relevant considerations.

The current draft Lewisham Community Bed Based Rehabilitation Service Specification has been published with this prospectus.

The event will be held on Wednesday 8th August 2018 from 10am to 12pm in Rooms 1 -2, Cantilever House, Eltham Rd, Lee, London SE12 8RN.

Interested potential bidders will also have the opportunity to have discussions with the CSU/CCGs' team to further explore the ideas brought out in the Q&A sessions.

Although, these pre-procurement market events do not form any part of the formal procurement process, they will inform how the new service is commissioned. Information gained from these engagement events will be used to inform the final service specification and expected outcomes from the procurement process.
