James Paget University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (JPUH) 2022 - 2027 (CV99)

NHS Norfolk & Waveney Integrated Care Board, in conjunction with James Paget University Hospitals and NHS England, has issued a contract modification notice for a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. This modification pertains to the existing contract initially awarded in 2022 for services in the hospital category, specifically targeting a Rapid Access Heart Valve Disease Clinic. Located in the UKH15 region, this pilot project aims to improve patient care and reduce referral wait times to under four weeks.

The procurement stage is currently in the contract update phase as of April 2025, and the modification sustained the contract’s initial character while falling within the permissible change in value under 25%. The total contract value is £1,771,007,354, with the pilot duration lasting approximately 2880 days. This tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those with capabilities in rapid diagnostic and cardiology services.

It is well-suited for large healthcare providers with experience in managing specialised clinics and reducing clinical wait times. Businesses that can offer innovative solutions and efficient service delivery models to support the goals of this PSR pilot, facilitating reduced waiting periods and enhancing patient outcomes, will find this an opportune contract to pursue.
