Outsourced clinical services are a valued resource used to support the reduction and recovery of NHS waiting lists and to support improvements in Referral to Treatment Times.
ANHSFT may require, from time to time, a range of outsourcing options to support operational delivery during periods of service pressure.
The requirements may include the following:
* Inpatient care and procedures
* Diagnostic tests
* Outpatient clinics
It is expected that contracts awarded will vary in value and may range between PS30,000 and PS1m per annum.
