Market Engagement - Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) for Deaf Adults

NHS England is looking to commission a service to deliver IAPT compliant services to Deaf adults through British Sign Language.

NHS England is asking potential bidders to complete a market assessment questionnaire to help inform the future commissioning strategy.The aim of the market engagement exercise is to inform potential providers on the opportunity and to collate feedback on the proposed market intervention. The information will be used to assist the commissioner in deciding on the most appropriate strategy for the future procurement.

Questionnaires must be submitted by 10 February 2020 via the Bravo Tendering system. The RFI (questionnaire) is under PQQ_91 - RFI Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) for Deaf Adults.
