### GIRFT DMO Pathway

The aim of this service is to provide Ophthalmology services across Norfolk and Waveney, The Commissioners are keen to receive feedback on any aspect of the proposed service

specifications and pathways included. We are particularly interested in if

you believe the proposed services are workable in practice, if you agree with the inclusion

The overarching ophthalmology service specification (Document A) outlines the expectations

The aim of this Expression of Interest is to;

- provide the market with visibility of the proposed opportunity;
- support the ICB decision making to inform the future commissioning of services (as applicable);
- to help define the future service approach, model and timelines;
- to gauge the level of interest from the market of capable providers with capacity across the region to deliver the services noted above.
