NHS England London, Public Health Screening team, are currently preparing for the undertaking of the AAA procurement in 2024. Commissioners are inviting all interested organisations to a Market Engagement Event which will take place virtually via MS Teams on Thursday 07th March 2024. A maximum of 2 representatives are invited to attend on behalf of each organisation. The aim of AAA Screening Programme is to reduce deaths from ruptured aneurysms through early, accurate detection via ultrasound scan, monitoring and management of men with screen detected aneurysms, and appropriate referral and progress tracking of referrals to accredited vascular services for high quality diagnostic and treatment services. Delivery of the programme includes successful identification and invitation to screening of all men eligible for NHS care registered with a GP within the commissioned screening programme boundaries in the year they turn 65. It also includes testing, surveillance, diagnose, referral to treatment/intervention and monitoring of outcomes. Currently, in London there are two programmes: North London Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Programme (NLAAASP) provides screening across three ICBs in NWL, NCL and NEL including 21 Local Authorities; and South London Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Programme (SLAAASP) provides AAA screening across SWL and SEL ICBs and 12 local authorities, plus parts of Surrey. In total, both programmes are responsible for an eligible population of 46500 men. The service specifications, contract values and contract durations stipulated are all in draft and are being developed. In relation to the financial model, the Authority is proposing an Activity-based model with the following tariff (indicative figure at this stage): Routine/ Surveillance screening - £60 per screen. This model is indicative at this stage and, in addition to the need for market feedback, the model will undergo affordability testing.
