Primary Care Enhanced Services

The NHS Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board intends to award a contract under the Provider Selection Regime for Primary Care Enhanced Services, including Phlebotomy, Spirometry, and DVT Assessment, among others. This notice, dated 10th September 2025, marks the beginning of the standstill period with a deadline for representations by 20th September 2025. The project is located in the UKF region, specifically involving services in Lincolnshire East.

This procurement comes under the services category, with a direct award process that bypasses prior competition, governed by the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime Regulations 2023. This contract is valued at £115,225 and represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the healthcare services sector, particularly those already well-versed in providing similar services. The successful tenderer, Swineshead Medical Group, is identified as a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME), suggesting that businesses of comparable size and capability could compete effectively in such exercises.

This procurement method emphasizes quality, innovation, and service integration, providing an opening for businesses that prioritise these areas in their offerings to potentially expand their market presence and contribute to public health outcomes.
