Work description
NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands CSU on behalf of NHS South Warwickshire CCG are seeking a suitably experienced and qualified organisation to provide an Integrated Community Dermatology Triage and Treat Service.
The service will reduce unnecessary referrals to acute dermatology service, reducing patient anxiety and increase patient choice. The aim is to offer a more economically viable service that address the capacity gap in the health system, with a greater number of patients managed within the primary care or community setting with the lowest number of appointments that are clinically safe. The service would triage patients to confirm the risk of disease and appropriate treatment plan and where possible treat patients in one visit.
The contract will be for an initial 3 years with the option to extend for a further 2 years at the sole discretion of the Commissioner.
