Enhanced Homeless Primary Care Health Service

The NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board intends to advance the "Enhanced Homeless Primary Care Health Service" aimed at delivering comprehensive healthcare to homeless individuals in Enfield. This project falls under the services category within the medical practice and related services industry, aiming to mitigate health barriers and improve outcomes for this vulnerable group. Initially intended as an award under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), the announcement was retracted for service review as of 24th April 2025, with potential future notices aligned with procurement regulations.

The procurement process was previously handled through a limited method without prior publication, given the prior service continuation rationale. Initial submissions were required by 28th April 2025 for provider representations, with the contract term earmarked to start on 1st April 2025 and conclude by 31st March 2026. The service provision location is Enfield, London.

This procurement presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services for vulnerable populations, such as those with expertise in integrated care models or experience in addressing health inequalities. Businesses that can demonstrate innovation, value for money, and commitment to social value, including adherence to the London Living Wage, are well-suited to compete in this sphere. The previous vendor, Enfield Healthcare Cooperative Ltd, was evaluated on criteria such as quality, integration, access improvement, and sustainability.

Companies aligning with these values and equipped to deliver on similar key performance indicators will likely find opportunities for growth and long-term collaboration with the NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board.
