The High Intensity User (HIU) support programme service for Halton Place and Warrington Place offers a robust way of reducing frequent user activity primarily to A&E and non-elective admissions but can also contribute to reducing other avoidable unscheduled care contacts. The contract will be split into 2 LOTs : LOT 1 for Halton Place and LOT 2 for Warrington Place. The contract is valued at approximately £120,000 per year across both LOTs; and the contract duration will be for 2 years with the potential to extend for a further 1-year period.
