Description
The London Borough of Croydon established a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the provision of primary care embedded public health services and is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified organisations.
The DPS was established in April 2016 and will run for a period of 5 years.
The services relate to public health services that are designed to improve health outcomes for the residents of Croydon. The services are varied in nature; however they share a common need to be fully embedded within core primary care provision, both in terms of location and patient pathways, and to be in convenient locations within communities that Croydon residents trust and access for their general healthcare needs.
The rationale for this local approach is dependent on the service; however, in general it is intended to:
1. Improve access to public health services within local communities;
2. Ensure that a full range of services and/or comprehensive service provision is available in primary care (for example, where the local authority is responsible for commissioning elements of a system that is also commissioned by NHS England or the CCG);
3. Ensure appropriate targeting of services to those communities or population groups most in need; and
4. Ensure that public health services form a central part of core primary care provision.
Services include:
1. Long Acting Reversible Contraception (IUD/IUS and contraceptive implant)
2. Chlamydia screening
3. Enhanced sexual health pharmacy services
4. Shared care (substance misuse)
5. Supervised administration of methadone and buprenorphine (SAM/SAB)
6. NHS Health Check - invitations
7. NHS Health Check - delivery
8. Behaviour Change - Just Live Well
