The five CCGs wish to commission a Community Ophthalmology Service incorporating: Minor Eye Conditions Scheme (MECS); Single Provider Model and Optometrist Triage Service for their patients. The Minor Eye Conditions Service (MECS) will provide a timely and effective assessment of the needs of a patient presenting with an eye condition. The assessment will be undertaken by an accredited optometrist within suitably equipped premises who will manage the patient appropriately and safely. The Single Provider Model will involve a 'Lead Provider' being responsible for sub-contracting with and management of MECS optometry practices. The Optometrist Triage Service will clinically triage all routine referrals to hospital eye services to ensure patients are directed to most appropriate service, namely MECS or appropriate sub-specialty clinic within hospital eye services. The aim of the service is to improve eye care pathways within South East London and ensure patients get timely and appropriate access to eye care We anticipate that the maximum value over a 3-year contract period with an option to extend to a further 2 years beyond the initial contracted duration is £4.78 million GBP. This will be subject to satisfactory performance and by mutual agreement between the Commissioners and the Provider. The procurement will be advertised via OJEU and Contract Finder.
