Summary, notice description and lot information
The buying organisation, NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board, has confirmed the contract award for a dermatology service to The Rame Group Practice. This award, under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, does not fall under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract, valued at £585,184, is set to run from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027 and is located in East Cornwall, addressing service needs for patients aged 16 and over.
The procurement stage is at the award, with the most recent contract update dated 28th October 2025. This direct award underlines significant opportunities for medical practices with expertise in dermatology to engage in substantial government contracts without the traditional competitive tendering process. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) such as The Rame Group Practice, with established local services, may find such direct extensions of existing services beneficial for growth, particularly in niche healthcare service areas like dermatology.
This streamlined contract process favours experienced providers with a successful track record in delivering specialised health services.
